OS 9.0.4 Won't install onto a 7300/180 apple says 7300 runs upto 9.1

I purchased a 7300/180/224MB Ram on Ebay. Installed on this machine is OS 8.6. It runs Great.
I want to hook up my HP Deskjet 3520 Printer, but the printer drivers won't run under anything less than 9.0.
I checked on the Apple Docs.com page to see if my 7300 would run 9.0, it said that I can run up to 9.1 on the PowerPc 604e.
I purchased (New) off of Ebay, OS 9.0.4, Marked for the iMac DV Model, I figured that since the Apple page said that I can run up to 9.1, then 9.0.4 would work. The OS CD ROM informs me that "This software won't work on this computer".
Can I get this to run, or did I waste my money on Software that won't run on my 7300?

Hi, Powrline99, and welcome to Apple Discussions. You wasted your money on a CD that is designed to install OS 9.0.4 on a particular iMac model. It is of no use to you. You need to buy a retail (not model-specific) installer CD. All such CDs are white with a big gold "9" on their labels, and the labels don't mention any Mac model at all. Any OS 9.x CD that mentions a particular Mac model on its label is the wrong disc for you.

  • PE 12 won't install on my Mac. Message says close running programs but none are running

    Why won't Photoshop 12 for mac install? I get a message to close running programs but none listed and none are running. Tried several times including restarting computer

    Tried that but nothing other than the Finder was open in activity monitor. However stumbled on the fact that Sugarsync was running although it did not show up anywhere. Closed it and installation worked!

  • My Mac has Snow Leopard 10.5.8. I want to install Mtn. Lion. Apple says I first need to install SL 10.6.8 and that it'll be available at Software Updates. It isn't. Now what?

    My Mac has Snow Leopard 10.5.8. I want to install Mtn. Lion. Apple says I first need to install SL 10.6.8 and that it'll be available at Software Updates. It isn't (and I've installed every software update I can pull up.) Now what?

    10.5.8 is Leopard. 10.6.x is Snow Leopard.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions.  The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
    Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
    Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Are my applications compatible?
    See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.
    Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
    See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

  • Mavericks Won't Install Onto 120GB SSD

    Been using 120GB SSD as start-up drive with user file on larger HHD.  Tried Mavericks clean install on to newly formatted SSD but installer failed due to it could not install recovery HD.  I have always done clean installs of major updates then use import user data or migration from previous version drive. Used Same SSD on Lion & Mountain Lion clean installs.  Why would this case be different? 

    Hey there DBond65,
    It sounds like you are definately on the right track. If you are booted into your Operating System you will not be able to repair it for some issues. You would ned to boot to the recovery partition, and do the repair there.
    This will help you get to the recovery partition:
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
    If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
    Select Disk Utility, and then click Continue.

  • Won't install on Toshiba Thrive. Mozilla says it's compatible, but the Play store says it's not. It installed on my phone, but won't on the Thrive.

    I checked the supported devices list on the Mozilla site, and they list the Toshiba Thrive as compatible with the new android browser. However, when I attempt to download it, the Play Store says the Thrive is not compatible and refuses to show me the app to download and install. Can anyone explain what's going on here? Thanks.

  • Photoshop CS6 windows won't install with my serial number given says not valid

    I bought my extended photoshop cS6 in 2012 and installed on Mac computer now I'm trying to install on my new dell laptop with the windows disc and the serial number i have in my account under product is not valid?

    You cannot use a Mac serial on Windows. Changing platform can be an expensive task. However, since CS6 is still current Adobe MIGHT convert the license for you if you contact them.

  • Why won't iTunes 11.1 install onto my computer?

         Okay, so... I've had the iPod Touch 5 since march. And today upgraded (well, downgraded) to the iOS7. I hate it; but, I figured if I can't go back I might as well deal with it.
         I plugged my iPod Touch into my computer, and waited for iTunes to pop up. It did. But, it said my iPod was no long compatible with that version: and to upgrade to iTunes (11.1 version). I went to www.apple.com/download/ just like everyone had said to.
         It took me to where you type your e-mail and press DOWNLOAD. I did. And guess what?
         It said "Thank You for Downloading iTunes!". I waited for it to install onto my computer; but, it never did. I started googling every possible thing. It said to go into the control panel and uninstall iTunes completely. And reinstall it onto the computer. I did, and went back to Apple and downloaded it again; but, it still won't install onto the computer.
         So now, I don't have iTunes 11.1 or my older version. Everythings gone!
    *Hairs are being pulled out, as I've been on the computer now for over 4 hours*
         Someone, ANYONE! Please help?!

    Here is the solution:

  • I am trying to install Mavericks on my McbookAir, but it won't install, saying that my hd is used for time machine backups. I have an external HD connected to my mbAir that I'm using for time machine.

    2012 Macbk air, with OSX 10.8.5. See my question above. Mavericks won't install on my Air's HD, says that both the HD - AND - the external HD (which has a different name from the laptop HD) are used for time machine backups. I've deleted my time machine plists, restarted, repaired permissions, turned time machine off, repeatedly selected the external drive in time machine preferences. HELP. (Install went perfectly on my desktop Mac, which also has an external HD for time machine).

    I need to add that the only place I have the "Backups.backupdb" folder is on my backup external disk, and it's not on my HD    :-(    . If it were, I'd delete it!

  • Firefox won't install for all users in Windows 8.1; only installs for administrator

    Since moving to Windows 8.1, I have been unable to install Firefox for multiple users on this laptop. Firefox installs only for the Administrator (me), and does not appear on any other user account. When I try installing from one of the other user accounts (after entering my administrator password), it simply won't install.

    Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
