Os 10.5.6 for ibook g4

I have a ibook g4 and currently its running on 10.4.11. I was wondering if it would even be possible to upgrade to 10.5 without losing too much hard drive space. This computer is quite an older mac and i have a newer macbook pro but im still willing to upgrade anyway. My processor is a 1.42 GHz PowerPC g4 and my memory is 1.5 GB DDR SDRAM. Its on the smaller side of Processors and Memory but would that be enough to upgrade to 10.5?

Hello,
From the specification you supplied you can install Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.
The system requirements are:
Processor must be any Intel, PowerPC G5 or G4 (867 MHz and faster)
DVD drive (for installation of the operating system)
At least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM (1 GB) is recommended for development purposes)
At least 9 GB of disk space available.
Hope this helps

  • I have iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

    Hi, I have the  iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

    Hello Glittergirl68,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the function to reseize the Font in an iBook is not functioning properly.
    I recommend a few things here. First close all the apps that are running in the background:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    From: iOS: Force an app to close
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    When you have done that, restart the phone, and try again.
    If the issue persists, I would follow these steps from the article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
    2. Check for app updates
    You can setup apps to update automatically in Settings > iTunes & App Store, but make sure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If  prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the app updates.
    Note: Some apps may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You can also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
    4. Restart the app
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app.
    5. Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.
    6. Reinstall the affected app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
    Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the app and then download it again.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade but I have a new Apple ID, how can I make certain I don't lose any data in my iBooks?

    I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade iBook but it is "stuck" on my old ID, yet I already created a new ID but it won't let me update the App.  I have everything backed up on my MacBook so if I delete iBooks on my iPad and retrieve the App under my new ID and then sync with my MacBook, will I still have all of the books, etc.?

    Your purchases are tied to your Apple ID. If you bought all of the books with the old ID then AFAIK you will have to continue to use that ID in order to continue to sync those books to the iPad.
    You have to update the app with the old ID so I don't see how you could keep the books with the new ID. Maybe I am wrong about this, but someone else will chime in I'm sure and correct me if I am wrong.

  • Looking for iBooks Author vendor

    Looking for iBooks Author vendor to create multiple books based on an existing template. The books are operative techniques for the orthopaedic surgery industry. Need an idea of cost to outsourse. Here are the specs:
    7 chapters
    the first page of each chapter is an overview of the chapter that includes hyperlinks to each step in the operative technique
    total of 44 pages
    each page has at least one video widget (some pages have two), a photo gallery widget plus a static image and text
    glossary index with 100 entries that include text and photos (would love to find someone who can program including collada 3-D images into the glossary. but that is a nice to have, not a need to have)
    all images require resizing for the ibook (they are print images)
    all videos require compression for the ibook
    half of the pages have 3-d collada files
    heavy typesetting is required
    three pages include large interactive images with 20 labels
    Looking for estimates to present to the company on the cost to outsourse as well as find possible vendors to talk to and provide more detail.
    thanks.

    i apologize. here is my contact email if anyone is interested in talk more about this.

  • I recently purchased a book from itunes on my ipad 2 but when i open the book in ibooks i get (incorrectly formatted or not formatted for ibooks) somebody please help

    I am currently deployed over seas.. I recently purchased a book that im pretty stoked about. but when i open it in ibooks i get ( incorrectly formatted or not formatted for ibooks to recognize) the file is an .epub so i dont see how it could be a format issue.. I tried emailing apple but because of the situation they want me to call. I have very limited telecomminications at my location .. somebody please help

    The Report a Problem link can also be found in iTunes/Store/View Account/Purchase History.
    Before asking for a refund, also try deleting the book and redownloading it.
    If you find that the iBookstore is does not meet your needs, you can try one of the others like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, or Sony.

  • Creating a template in Pages is straight-forward as answered here previously. Is there and equivalent for iBooks Author which can start with a blank page and build up the template as required? or can one only adapt a ready made template?

    Creating a template in Pages is straight-forward as answered here previously. Is there an equivalent for iBooks Author which can start with a blank page and build up the template as required? or can one only adapt a ready made template? This has proved unsatisfactory to me so far. Lines are left in etc.

    There are two basic menus for fonts - one from the main menu bar and one from the toolbar. You can also bring up the font manage dialog.
    I don't recommend trying to hard to force an otherwise foreign font, as it inevitably needs to be usable/supported on iOS as well, and that can get tricky w/3rd party fonts, as an example, even with the expanded font support in the latest iBA.
    If you need to discuss fonts more, I suggest starting a new thread....preferably with a slightly more brief title, thanks.

  • HTML5 audio widget for iBooks Author

    Hello!
    I'm creating a HTML widget for iBooks Author and I want to add a audio tag of HTML5 in my HTML file. When I do this, I test in Safari Browser and the audio sounds good, so I add my widget with the HTML file, sounds, Default.png and Info.plist and I do a Preview for see in iPad. When I open the widget in iPad the sound doesn't work and it show me a message like this:
        "cannot play audio file"
    The audio have a .m4a extension. I don't know what can I do...
    Someone can help me, please?
    Thanks!

    Hi Crisiii,
    I have the same problem. However, in my case it does work if I test the widget in an new empty book. When I add the widget to the real book it does not work. mabe you should do the test to troble-shoot and have a better idea of what is wrong in your case.
    I will try to find a fix to the problem and let you know if I do. Please do the same if you find what the problem is.
    Thank you.

  • I need help with Compressor 4 settings to convert .mp4 files to .m4v for iBooks Author

    I'm a curriculum design guy with no video background. I have Compressor 4, but don't really know much about how to best use it.  I'd appreciate some help with getting the right setting for my project. Screen shots of settings would be much appreciated, since I don't know much video terminology.
    I'm making an free iBook for students on WWII propaganda using old videos from the Internet archive.
    I'd plan to use Compressor to:
    1. Convert the .mp4 files to a .m4v that iBooks Author will accept. (I know I can use QT for that, but it increases file size)
    2. Use Compressor to reduce file size so my iBook doesn't get too big
    3. Get videos that look & sound the best, given the poor quality of the original source videos.
    Here's some sample videos that I'll use:

    http://archive.org/download/AvengeDe1942/AvengeDe1942_edit.mp4
    PS - I will also be editing some of the original videos in iMovie - if I use different settings to prep those videos for iBook Author, let me know.
    Much thanks in advance for any help

    Compressor is half the size compared to QtX encoding, 17 MBs...

  • So what is better - time efficient - Google Sketch or Strata 3d SE for ibooks author use?

    So what is better - time efficient - Google Sketch or Strata 3d SE for ibooks author use?

    Yes, but I doubt if my definition of ease-of-use is the same as yours.
    As always with these types of questions, the best method is to work with both, on your machine, using your environment, your content, your specs, your resources, with your time and then decide.

  • Is there a Paste in Place option for iBooks Author?

    Is there a paste in place option for iBooks Author like there is in Adobe InDesign? Thanks.

    InDesign's PIP means pasting at arbitrary coordinates.
    Not sure what that has to do with iBA, sorry, which isn't strictly canvas based.
    If you just want to clone items....that depends on the object. Best to experiment with your particular content, etc.

  • Do the Templates and Themes for iBooks Author include the flip page animation?

    Well, this question is concern about something similar asked by romondodavis on 28-mar-2012  (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17981772#17981772) and also answered by K T.
    So my question refers to know if when buying the Templates and Themes for iBooks Author the curl/turn/flip animation is included with them or should I have to buy necessary Pages so I can generate those industry standard e-pubs as K T suggests in order to get the turn page animation enabled by default?
    Thanks in advance
