Replacement Discs

I was just wondering if it's possible to purchase the original system discs that came with my PowerBook G4 17" Mod? I seemed to have misplaced them.
Thanks.

Call Apple Customer Relations at 1-800-767-2775 and ask. Chances are they're all gone by now, but you might get lucky. There will be a fee for them if they're still available.

    Call Apple and give them your serial number and they will send you the disks for a nominal charge.

    If you purchased the software from Adobe directly, Contact Customer Care - they can tell you if there is a chance to get a replacement disk.  But most likely they will tell you to download the software.

  • Need replacement disc for Creative Suite CS3 Design Standard

    My hard drive on my MacBook Pro is crapping out on me and refuses to let me make a full bootable backup so I can replace the disk. Problem is that I've foolishly managed to lose my physical disks for Creative Suite CS3 Design Standard so I can't do a reinstall. Can anyone on the forum help? Thanks in advance.

    If you still have your serial number somewhere, you may call Adobe Tech Support and provide them with the details that you have. If you are really nice to them, they may send you a replacement disc. Good Luck.

  • Re Safe to use macOS X replacement discs on macbook 4,1?bySBV?

    1.  Is it safe to use Mac OS X replacement discs on Macbook 4,1 (make sure is 4 1)?  This macbook is like a child w/o parents.
    2.  Is it true this macbook 4 1 was upgrade to 6MG and that can be downloaded from apple?  sbv.illi

    1. If they are the gray install disks that came with the MacBook. The gray disks are specific to a machine. They only have the drivers and files for the machine that they came with. You have the operating system on disk one and iLife and additional software on disk 2.
    Otherwise you'll need to use a retail disk.

  • Replacement Discs to Wipe a hard drive

    I recently got a macbook and would like to wipe my emac to sell it. I can't find my original discs for the emac. Is there a way to download and burn replacement discs?
    Any help would be great!

    MacBook discs won't boot an eMac. And even if they did, it would be a violation of the Apple EULA to do so and then sell the eMac with Leopard installed on it. I see eMac Tiger discs on eBay right now for $100. I'd really try and buy from Apple first before springing that kind of cash on an eBay auction.

  • Replacement discs for cs5 creative suite

    I am a college student and bought cs5 creative suite two years ago, and have since then lost my discs while moving around. My computer that has the program on it just finally bit the dust so to speak and I am wondering if there is a way to get replacement discs and how I would go about doing that.

  • Tiger replacement disc question

    I received 4 replacement system discs for my PowerPc G5 today.
    I wanted to run Apple Hardware Test but the discs aren't marked except with numbers.
    Using the option key at startup I am only able to select one of them to boot from and that is the one marked 1.
    But am unable to boot from it, part of the problem I have been  experiencing.
    Have been troubleshooting for close to 3 weeks now with a new optical drive arriving today. Installed new ram, new battery, new hd.
    I thought the AHT disc would help in the process.
    Was just wondering if AHT is in fact on disc number 1 of the replacement discs.
    Many Thanks for any help.

    I called apple and they sent me the discs but had to pay $69 and some change. I gave them my serial number and double checked with them that I would be getting a disc with the hardware test. I told them the original operating system that shipped with my computer.
    Apple Power Macintosh G5 2.0 GHz DP - PowerPC 970fx
    the discs I received are 4 white discs with Mac OS Tiger Printed on the top. They are white with black print.
    Printed on the discs it says "Replacement CD Not For Resale with the serial number and then 2005 Apple Inc. All Rights Reserved"
    Mac OS Tiger Install Disc 1  SRF2Z691-5815-A
    Mac OS Tiger Install Disc 2  SRF2Z691-5816-A
    Mac OS Tiger Install Disc 3  SRF2Z691-5817-A
    Mac OS Tiger Install Disc 4  SRF2Z691-5818-A
    I looked through the contents of the discs and didnt see anything mentioning the test.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • Creative Suite 3 Extended Replacement Disc

    Does anyone know how much it costs to get a Photoshop CS3 Extended replacement disc from Adobe? Also, how long does it take to be posted through?
    Many thanks.

    Call Adobe and do it fast....they don't hold onto older versions very long.

  • Replacement Disc

    I have a mid-2008 iMac that came with Leopard on it (now has S.L.), and my Mom has an iMac G5 that we got used from eBay.
    However, the PowerPC G5 did not come with any discs...and we want to upgrade it to Leopard.
    If I call Apple and ask for a replacement disc for my Intel iMac (the one that originally came with Leopard), can I then use that to install Leopard on my Mom's G5?  Or will the disc they send only be able to be installed on my machine? 

    The replacement disk for your Intel iMac will be a machine-specific installer and will not work with the G5 machine.  Apple no longer sells Mac OS X 10.5 so that has to be found from sources such as Amazon, eBay or others.
    You can try Apple Customer Support to see if they will send a G5 iMac-specific disk, you have to give them the machine serial number.  Check: http://www.apple.com/contact for the number.

  • Contact Apple for replacement disc?

    So, because of assorted crashing issues, last night I took the step to re-install Leopard. Unfortunately, I've tried 7 times and 7 times the install has failed at different points and for different reasons.
    Sometimes (not always) I get a message that the Leopard disc is damaged (which I find hard to believe since it works just fine as a boot disc when I needed to run Disk Utility) and that I should contact Apple for a replacement.
    Anyone have any experience with this? Do I just walk into my local Apple store and say "give me a new disc?"
    And while we're at it, any advice on steps that could help with the installation would be appreciated. I had a few issues right after I bought Leopard and I can't remember what ended up being the solution. I have taken the step to unplug every firewire / usb device from the computer.

    I did, and did get an error message. After that first time I skipped the verification process, hoping that it might sneak through.
    Contacting Apple Care now about a new disc. Any other advice in the meantime would be appreciated.
    Have to say this is the only time I've had issues with an Apple product. Trying to keep that positive thought in my head.

  • Replacement Discs and Passwords

    I purchased my cs4 creative suite back in 2009 or 2010, since then i have misplaced the box, the disc and the documentation, inclusive of my passwords.  is there a way of getting these replaced in full, seeing as i have already paid for the software but have just misplaced it years later?
    i have purchased a new computer and would like to reinstall.

    Adobe (nor any other software company) can be held responsible for you not keeping your records. If you misplaced your serial number and all that and thus made a 3000 dollar investment useless, it's your own fault. I know this sounds harsh, but that's the reality of it. You woudln't expect a car dealer to replace a car for which you have misplaced the keys, either. If you have any prove of purchase left and the sale was made directly through Adobe, you can try and contact support and they may be able to pick it out from the database, but otherwise there's no way.

  • How to replace disc drive in G4 iMac 700

    Seems the disc tray is stuck, makes sound like trying to open, but doesn"t.  Think I need to replace?

    Hi S,
    If you have the newer unibody style, it's very easy. If it's one of the earlier models, it's considerably more difficult. Go to Apple Menu > About This Mac > More Info > Hardware and find your Model Identifier. Then go to ifixit.com, or powerbookmedic.com or macsales.com or youtube or others and there are illustrated, detailed directions. Good luck to you and post back if you have further questions.

  • Replacement disc for macbook

    I recently got a macbook (late 2007 model) but it came with the wrong system discs.  I know they are very specific.  I found ones for an early 2008 on ebay but those probably won't work.  But they had part numbers or serial/version numbers on them.  How do I find the numbers for my macbook so I know I'm getting the right ones?  Should be 10.5

    Order replacements from AppleCare:
