Running GB 1.1 on Intel-based cpu
I'd like to know if there will be any problem running GB 1.1 on an Intel-based Mac. I need to do this for my school music classroom, as all the computers there use that version on eMacs. All help will be appreciated.
Call the place you bought Snow Leopard from, and ask for them to replace the disk as it or your DVD drive is obviously defective. As others have noted, you can't upgrade to Lion regardless.
That said, before you install 10.6, be sure you really are prepared for it: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
And if after getting a replacement 10.6 disk it fails to install, verify your PRAM battery is not over 4 years old, and that your optical drive isn't dirty by bringing it in for service.

Can I run PowerPC programs on a Intel based Mac?
I have software that is for PowerPC. Not knowing this I installed it and have been using it with minor problems. Since going to Leopard I've really noticed issues. I didn't realize this til I ran Activity Monitor and noticed all were Intel except this one program. Is this an issue I should be concerned about?
Hi ananumuss;
Instead of making us guess what software you are talking about here, why not simply tell us what you are having trouble getting to work on an Intel Mac.

Is there any workaround at all to run PM7 on a Intel-based Mac?
Dear friends:
I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro and, before I did, I asked some questions to Apple about the possibility of having the software pre-installed, specifically, BootCamp and Classic, receiving the computer with a partition already made and requirements of the sort. Basically, Technical Support told me that they were not able to perform any of these tasks, although the person I have spoken to said to me that I could run PageMaker (I think he mentioned an update). After a couple of days researching, it appears that I have been misinformed. Unfortunately I have several hundreds of PageMaker files in archive, and I cannot afford to lose the ability to open them directly (I am a radical InDesign fan, I have used it since v.1.0). Does anybody know any workaround at all to run PageMaker 7 on a Intel-based Mac? Maybe some software to emulate the Classic? Maybe an upgrade or a third-party application? I cannot believe that MacOS supports Windows (in fact, I have installed Windows Vista) better than its predecessor Mac OS 9.2.2.
Thanks a lot for your time,
Eduardo Guarniz>Does anybody know any workaround at all to run PageMaker 7 on a Intel-based Mac?
Well there are two ways. the best way is to have an old machine that boots OS9. If you don't have one, buy one. I found one for about $69 a few years ago I'm sure they are even cheaper now.
There is some software called SheepShaver its supposed to run Classic apps on a Mactel. With all the problems of running PM in Classic (I would never use PM for production in Classic) Its probably even worse running on SheepShaver.
Be smart get the old machine. -
Upgrading FCP 4.5 HD from Power PC to Intel based iMAC
I have FCR 4.5 HD software license for Power MAC G5.. What is my upgrade option or procedure to load and run the same software on Intel based IMAC. Is there a binary I can buy to move the license software to Intel based IMAC.
Please help.
KiranFCP 4.5 is not designed to run on the Intel Macs and is not supported.
Your upgrade path to Final Cut Studio 2 (the current intel version) is spelled out HERE
Short story ... Send apple a check for $699.

Regarding iPhoto '11 9.5 (902.7 build running on an older Intel based MacBook Pro with iPhoto libraries on a USB2 External HD). I am dealing with iPhoto taking too long to download photos. Specifically, I rechecked and repaired HD permissions. I am running the most current software my five year old Intel MacBook Pro can run. What happens is that when I connect an external SD card, or my iPhone, the new version of iPhoto takes up to two full minutes to fully acknowledge the device. Then locate new photos and be ready to download them to my external HD. I am kind of concerned about this. This has never happened before.
I take 20,000 photos a year. I really don't want to lose any. Or is there something I am doing wrong? Or need to be aware of? Any experienced suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Have a great day.
PS.... The cameras I use are Canon SX-30, Nikon D3100, and my iPhone 4S. Thanks again for your assistance.Hello Old Toad.... Those sound like great ideas.
I thought I checked and repaired disk permissions on my main boot HD. That boot disk is Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Capacity 749.3 GB. Available 562.53 GB. BUT.... now that I think of it.... the Seagate external HD with USB2 interface is: Mac OS Extended (Journaled), Capacity 639.79 GB, Available 36.2 GB with my latest iPhoto Library 517.37 GB that was already scanned & updated to be read by the latest iPhoto version.
I'll try your suggestions tonight as far as double checking 'permissions' and setting up a tiny test library.
Or maybe it's time to fill up another External HD?
I appreciate your and anyone else's suggestions to try.
Have a great day. ~~ David in Rochester NY -
Is it possible to run OS 9 CD-ROMs on an Intel-based iMAC?
My children have a bunch of CD-ROMs that run using Mac OS 9.
Is there any way to run these on an Intel-based iMAC?
My kids were so excited to get a new MAC and then so disappointed when they found they couldn't play some of their favourite games on it.A quick search of the forum comes up with these results. Sheepshaver is an option sometimes.

I used migration assistant and my ethernet cable to move data and apps from my 5-yr old Intel-based iMac to my brand new Intel-based iMac running OS Lion. The old machine was running OS 10.5.8. Not all my files transferred (or I can't find them). I've seen recommendations to select the old computer in System Preferences, but that didn't work. Help. Thanks!
IMO, wrong choice. Start over, using a FireWire cable and following the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

Running out of disk space on an early 2008 intel based 320gb HD
yesterday asked if. should be running out of disk space if my 320 gb has 248 gb of used space. In the using your. Intel based i Mac secttion of this fourm It appears out of space on the HD .can upgrade the HD If so what steps i must take to do so and how much bigger external must buy if 1 tb HD verse a 3 TB and will to buy the external HD before reach over 500gb of used space on the back up I now have.

Get the new HD and an enclosure to put it into, then after formatting it to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) in GUID partition use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to create a bootable clone of the internal HD. Then install the new HD into the computer. However rather than going through this excercise which is major surgery on an iMac I'd simply get external HD's to store large amounts of data. My iMac's internal HD is only 320GB however it staill has 219GB of free HD space because I store my large libraries on external HD's. Much easier and the performance doesn't suffer and I didn't run into any issues with breaking internal parts of making serious errors. -

No CPU temperature sensor on Intel based Mac mini?
Does new Intel based Mac mini has no CPU temperature sensor like the first, PPC based, Mac mini?
If I'm wrong what universal utility should I use to monitor the CPU temperature of my brand new Intel CoreDuo Mac mini?Every time a new model Mac comes out, the temperature monitoring utilities have to be updated. Obviously, the insides of the Intel Mac mini is different from the PowerPC Mac mini. The folks who write those kinds of tools can't see into the future and write a utility that will work on computers that haven't been released yet. Just give them a little while to catch up!

Mainboard P45-C51 BIOS 5.1 : cant run Intel Q8300 CPU BSOD
Hej i have a Mainboard P45-C51 BIOS 5.1 cant get it to Run with a Intel Q8300 CPU please help..
I have tried 2 x Q8300 BSOD under Windows7 Installation. but with an old CPU Like Core2/6420 i works great.
dont think i have 2 broken Q8300 because there work in others motherboard from Gigabyte.
Kind regards THXMANQuote
But get BSOD from 2 brand new Q8300 just out of the box.
Any chance that there is a broken or bent socket pin that matters to the Q8300 more than to the E6240? Have you checked that yet?
Can you please have a look at the heatspreader of both Q8300s and write down the sSpec Number? There are two revisions of the Q8300. One with and one without Intel Virtualization Support. [SLGUR and SLB5W]
I don't know why, but there is no useful CPU Support List for your board (or any other board of that series for that matter). That is why it is impossible to check if the CPU is actually supported or not.
A look at the last generation of MS-7519-Board reveals that the CPU Support List does not have any of the two Q8300-CPUs in it. So this may be a simply no-support issue which has nothing to do with broken components (as you said, it is rather unlikely to get two different broken CPU exemplars).
What you can do is to contact MSI Support and ask what could be going on here:
http://support.msi.com/
They may provide you with a newer BIOS-Revision to try your luck with (the latest BETA Release I know of is A7519IMS.524 (v5.2b4)). -
I have a PPC based software ... Is it possible to run it in intel based?? I have a iMAC OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Thanks
Their answer was this ...
The version for GNX4 MACOSX is only for PPC based Mac. There is no Intel version as the product was discontinued before Intel based MAC came out.
I guess I should give up, hehehe...

How can I check for spyware on my Intel based mid-2007 iMac running Lion?
I recently received a message stating that my Intel based iMac desktop may contain spyware plus a friend sent me a copy of an email to my iCloud email address that i did not send to him, i was not even home using my iMac on that date. I do have anti-virus software on my iMac from Integra and I do a scan each day before i shutdown the iMac and have not received any such warnings from that software.
I do appreciate any and all advise I can receive in this matter. A long time ago I did receive an email a Yahoo based email address and was notified that I could possibly loose my email account due to junk email being sent from my iMac. I did have the support/warranty from Apple at that time and a phone rep did talk me through steps to check for any intrusion to my iMac with negative results, the iMac was clear of any spyware, etc.
Hoping there is the same for this issue.You can't use a specific Mac OS X disc for a Mac with a different computer. First, call Apple and buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade OS X. Finally, open > Software Update and install the most recent version

Can LabView 8.01 run on an Intel-based Mac?
I am looking into use LabView and I wanted to know if anyone has run it on the new Intel Mac hardware?

Hi,
I need to get a new laptop and would really like to get a Mac Book Pro (it has integrated powered firewire which would be very handy). The main applications that I need LabVIEW for are image acquisition and analysis using the vision toolkit and the NI IEEE 1394 driver.
Does anyone know if I can use these if I installed boot camp and was running Windows on the Mac?
I do not see how there would be a difference between a PC and a Mac as far as LabVIEW was concerned but was wondering if it had been tried.
Thanks
Well, certainly not as far as LabVIEW is concerned. But the NI IEEE 1394 driver might be a problem. Not sure what chip Apple uses but you need apropriate driver support for it under Windows or NI IEEE 1394 needs to support it directly. That is something that could be likely crumbling on little details so make sure you get a clear statement from NI about that or try it out first before buying.

Publish date: July 7, 2008
*The following related tips are located in other areas of Apple Discussions:*
See also User Tips LibraryMy 20" 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo had become almost useless due to freezes and crashes- with NO crash reports in the logs.
They were often preceeded by video glitches, so I assumed it was a bad video card- unfortunately soldered to mother board.
Apparently, from forum postings, this is not an uncommon problem. The computer would run longer if the day was cooler, but rarely more than 10 minutes, so I suspected it was aggravated by heat.
Then I found this post from Bodomann on an Apple Support forum:
"Following up on my previous posting regarding my son's late model 2006 iMac that required a $900 logic board replacement:
Turns out the problem is apparently related to a bad CPU temp sensor. I installed 'iMac Fan Control' (Google it) which reported the CPU temp always at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (obviously incorrect). The same software allowed me to adjust the CPU fan manually. After multiple trials I set the CPU speed to 2800RPM after which the system would run forever - never freezing with the dreaded grey box 'reboot me' screen. I tried several times reverting the software to default speeds and the system would always crash within 10 minutes. "
I downloaded free Fan Control 1.2 for Imac from Derman Enterprises (they have an Intel iMac and a Mac Book/Pro version). It installs as a system preferences control panel. I cranked up all three fan speeds. The fans sped up noticeably. Horizontal lines have gone from screen (so far), no color artifacts and no crashes yet. I may have a real computer back! Hope Apple checks this out-
The control panel also gives the temps sensors are reporting at the CPU, hard drive and DVD drive. The CPU sensor reports the CPU temp as 32 degrees F- which is clearly wrong, unless Apple has been installing little refrigerators inside.
So thanks to Bodomann for posting- Hats off and three cheers to Derman and Cristoph for source code.
