PowerPC Processor not compatible with CS4 software...

I have the PowerMac G5 first release. I recently purchased the Adobe Master Collection. Some of the programs are not compatible with the PowerPC Processor. I just upgraded my RAM and OS so I would hate to have to buy a new MAC just to run these few programs. Is it possible to link the mini Mac to the G% and have the Intel required programs on the mini MAC? If so how does it work?

the sound or video programs will NOT run on PPC, period. Adobe is pretty clear about this.
yes, you will have to buy a new intel mac. I wouldn't get anything with the intel graphics or last year's closeouts. get the newest & most CPU / graphics you can afford. If you are in Mini territory, get the base one, add the faster CPU. do the RAM & HDD yourself, as long as you don't break anything, it won't viod the warranty.

  • Set Permissions Extension not compatible with CS4

    I have been using the set permissions extension for so long I thought it was just a given that this basic file management function would be part of DreamWeaver forever. I was wrong....In CS4 calling the extension throws this error: "set permissions requires version 7 or above". Using CS4 Dreamweaver version 10, go figure! This is such a fundamental functionality, I can almost not imagine any serious web developer not needing this capability in DW. Having to use another program to go around this bug is a real pain, especially in a high productivity environment.
    Can someone please update the set permissions extension?

    The extension is not needed in DWCS4, as the functionality the extension adds was built in, I think in DW8, but it may be later. When you have the files panel expanded to show local and remote files, you can right click on the remote side and change permissions of the selected item(s).

  • Canon T3i download cable will no longer work after 10.10 download. Plugging the cable into the 15 inch laptop says not compatible with software. Was fine before the 10.10 upgrade.

    10.10 is installed. Now when plugging the download cable in from my wife Canon T3i camera to my wifes 15 inch Apple laptop it says not compatible with the software. Worked fine before the 10.10 upgrade. However I CAN download my pictures from my Canon 6D camera to MY 15 inch Apple laptop.....

    I have a DSC-T1 Sony camera. I also have a Panasonic video camera with a built in digital camera. I just took some shots with the Panasonic. Plugged it in, and it worked perfectly. iphoto opened and did what it was supposed to do. I then tried the Sony and nothing happened again. Maybe this is a problem with the mac not recognizing certain cameras...?????

  • Audio driver download not compatible with hardware

    Pavilion dv6 1280-us - windows 7 64 bit reinstall - downloaded audio drivers from HP support site, but error message says hardware detected is not compatible with the software and install is cancelled.  Where do I go from here?

    The first step would be to verify that you downloaded the correct version of the driver. You should have seen an option for both the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions. I would verify that you downloaded the 64-bit version.
    You can also check the manufacturer's website for your audio device. They may have an updated version of the driver that they have not gotten to HP yet.

  • New update not compatible with my computer processor (PPC)

    I have a Mac G4 PPC 1.5GHZ with 1.25G Ram and Mac os 10.5.8
    Used to have FireFox installed on my computer until I made the mistake to try to update the program using it's built in software update feature.
    All went well until I tried to run Firefox after the install was complete. Up comes the message that the software is not compatible
    with my computers architecture.
    Now the install has erased my original Firefox and i cant seem to find a version anywhere that will work on a PPC.
    Can you assist?

    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

  • My new iphone software is not compatible with itunes

    Hi,
    I recenty up downloaded the new software on my iphone and Ipad. Now I cannot plug into itunes on my Mac. It said the software is not compatible. I have tried to udgrade my itunes and download the lastes version, but apparently my Mac (brought in 2007) is not compatible with the new itunes. Im really not happy about the situation as you will appreciate as now I cannot update music, photo's etc.
    Can someone please help? what can I do? I dont think its fair that I should have to spend money on upgrading anything just because I upgraded to the new iphone software.
    Thanks,

    Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • I bought a new imac running Loin and Office 2011. The server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software.

    I bought a new imac running Loin with Office 2011. I am the only mac in the office and the Server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software other than webmail access through our website. It looks as though 2011 is not compatible with 2003 per some searches online, but what are some options I have to gain full access again? I purchased parallels in hopes that this my help and I am able to use remote desktop connection to log on to server but can not drag and drop files I need. There is a shared drive on that Server we all use to exchange files.
    The two main issues are gaining access to my email again and ability to drag and drop files from mac to pc. I hope this is enough info to get some solutions.
    PS - IT person says my iMac's IP is what his server does not understand so that is why I can not login.

    Office 2011 is not compatbile with Exchange 2003.
    I suggest you post further Office related questions on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software:

  • HT1199 My mac has OSX version 10.8.2 and I'm try to install an aiport express base station which requires 10.5.7 or later. Yet when I try to install the software it says the base station is not compatible with my mac version - how do I resolve?

    You already have the software installed that you need if you have 10.8.2.
    If AirPort Utility cannot find the Express, that is another matter. More software is not needed. More troublehooting is needed.
    Power up the Express for a full minute
    Hold in the reset button on the Express for 7-8 seconds and release
    Allow a full minute for the Express to restart
    Click the AirPort icon at the top of the Mac's screen
    Look for a heading of New AirPort Base Station
    Just below that, click on AirPort Express
    What happens?

  • I need a prior version of firefox...version 1.5 because my payroll department software is not compatible with firefox 6.0... how do I get the other - older - version ??

    my payroll department uses eSAP payroll program. It is NOT compatible with your new version...6.0. I need your older version 1.5 so i can access my payroll records. I am currently being forced to use Internet Explorer and I absolutely HATE that software.
    please help !!! How do I get the older version? Version 1.5 - thank you.

    I would hope the problem is that Firefox 5 is not compatible with some of McAfee's additional add-ons. It will be rather worrying if it has a problem with the McAfee security programs themselves. Please state exactly which software and version you are having problems with.
    There are known issues with McAfee's Site Advisor [/questions/839953#answer-205178] but it is hoped McAfee will solve that in a few weeks.

  • The latest update for FireFox says it is not compatible with my Kaspersky anti-virus software. What's up with that?

    The latest update attempt from FireFox has stated that it is not compatible with the Kasperskys' anti-virus 2012 software. When will FireFox be compatible?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com
    For the full system requirements see http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html

  • When I down loaded the new upate a message said that the upgrade was not compatible with my anti-virus software so they disabled it. This is unacceptable.

    I got a message to up grade Firefox so I did. At a certain time in the process a message came up and said that you have some add ons that aren't compatible with this software so they will be disabled. At this time I tried to stop the up grade because I don't like things just being disabled, but it would not allow me to do so. As I continued to the next screen it told me that the software that was disabled was my anti-virus software. I run a business on my computer and am not happy that the protection of my computer and its contents is at risk.

    Firefox 4 is itself no longer supported and is not secure so the choice is between firefox 5 and firefox 3.6.
    Firefox 5 currently [/questions/839953#answer-205178 has problems] with the McAfee site advisor, but the McAfee AV still works ok with it; is that the AV you are using or is it something else ?

  • CS3 file not compatible with Photoshop CS4?

    My son uses Photoshop CS3 at college. He worked all day on an image (120MB), and saved it on a USB stick. When opening at home with Photoshop CS4, the "Reading Photoshop format" appears, then an error message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
    He has been burned before by a USB stick, but all the other files seem OK.
    Is there a solution to this?

    ^First thing I did was make a copy.
    QuickTime Picture Viewer (which seems to open other PSD files) says it is corrupted.
    Adobe Bridge can read the metadata, gives no preview, and won't open the file.
    Any other thoughts?
