Running OS 9 on Intel IMAC

I recently purchased an I Spy Game for my son and it won't run unless I restart my Intel Imac in OS9. Can I do this?

Thank you. I pulled out the old PC lap top. Guess I'm glad I didn't throw it away. Happy Easter

  • New intel iMac with reduction on Microsoft Office 2004

    Hi.
    I am seriously considering buying a new iMac Intel Core Duo. If i order before the end of january along with Microsoft office, i can get upto 50% off office.
    I know that the current version of office will run fine on the new iMac Intel Core Duo using 'Rosetta' and that they are developing a new version to be released in march that will run native on the intel imac.
    Therefore, if i buy office with my iMac now, I will not have the native version and I will have to buy the new version again?
    I am quite confused and really unsure what to do?
    Would it be worth me buying office now?
    Will i be able to upgrade to the new version for free?
    .... I dont understand why apple are selling a version of office with the new iMacs if it is not even the proper software.
    Please help me as I am unsure of what to do.
    Thanks a lot in advance...

    I'm not positive on this but I think I remember, during the keynote speech, the woman that was from the MSBU saying the updates would be available for download at no charge. Might be worth looking at that part of the keynote to be sure. I don't remember the date she said they would be available though.

    I was wrong. I just watched that part of the keynote again and there will be updates available for download for free but not the universal binaries. My bad.

  • Non universal programs suddenly crash on my Intel iMac

    I have been running Leopard on my Intel iMac for quite a while and suddenly all non universal programs now won't open.
    All were fine yesterday but now they only generate the crash report.
    All suggestions gratefully received.

    Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the problem persists. If so, install (if your profile info is correct and you're running 10.5.0) or reinstall the 10.5.2 COMBO update, repair permissions, and see if that fixes things. If not, then something's corrupt or conflicting in the original account. Report back.

  • Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD and Soundtrack Pro 1.0.2 and new Intel iMac

    I have the both FCP and Soundtrack Pro versions listed above. I'm thinking about picking up a new Intel iMac. Will I have to pay $199 or $99 to upgrade to FCP Studio. I just purchased Soundtrack Pro recently, if I could upgrade for just $99 and get Shake and iDVD that would be a deal...probably still a deal for $199.
    I also use CS2, seems Adobe is a little confusing to me. Will I have to pay to get CS2 native for the Intel iMac? Any idea on cost and timeliness.
    Separately, how will FCP run on a 20" Intel iMac once upgraded to Universal version, which I'll have to do, since it won't run under Rosetta? I currently only do Mini DV but should I plan on getting the extra video memory now, planning on eventually going into the HD video realm?
    Thanks everyone for your thoughts and comments...thinking about getting the Intel iMac via CompUSA with their interest free deals tomorrow.

    Powebook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Happy with Mac...don't want to lose the ease!

    well, same situation here, I was about to order a Macbook Pro but then decided to saty with our beloved G platform. the reason is that it will take some time for our Pro Apps to become fully /natively compatible with Intel and I just can't wait that much.
    as for your question about using an iMac with FCP, the answer would be a;
    "Yes" if you're going to work with DV only footage (using an external HD for your captured media is a must). and a
    "No" if you plan to work with HD material in the future. there you've got no choice but a PowerMac G5 with a fast Graphic Card and a special SD/HD card or box to capture the footage.
    résumé: if you're a serious FCP user, go for something expandible, go for a Powermac.

  • Adobe Reader plugin on Intel iMac... menu bar gone when viewing pdf?!?!?

    I had Adobe Reader 7.0.5 on my iMac G5 and when I clicked on a pdf file, it opened in a new window with a menu bar at the top. Since migrating to my Intel iMac yesterday, the menu bar is gone though pdf pages display... just with blank space where the menu used to be. I downloaded v7.0.8 and installed and the same problem. I have the prefs set to view pdf files in Safari and, again, they view... just no menu bar! Any idea how to fix this?

    As far as I know, Adobe Reader (even v7.0.8) isn't Universal yet, which means it [the plugin] probably won't run natively on your Intel iMac unless you run Safari under Rosetta.

  • PPC games on intel imac...

    Just a quick question. im looking at buying Halo for mac but im worried it may not work well because it would have been designed for PPC chips & i have an intel mac.
    i know rosetta runs while PPC apps are being used so im thinking this will slow the game/computer down too much.
    any thoughts?
    thanks

    Hi DJstylus,
    I'm not a Halo player, but I gather from http://www.joystiq.com/2006/08/26/Mac-Halo-now-with-Universal-Binary/ that Halo is now available as "Universal Binary", so no need for Rosetta, and , presumably, no problem in running it on an Intel iMac.
    (Edit - I've just confirmed this at http://www.destineerstudios.com/support/halo.html It may be necessary to purchase the orginal version and then apply the update though. It wasn't altogether clear from the instructions)
    Cheers

    Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
    I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
    So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
    How can I get rid of this error message?

    Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
    Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
    #1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
    Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
    Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
    #2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
    Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk  of your internal drive  (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
    Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway)  or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
    #3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
    #4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
    If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

    That's it really.

  • How do I mirror my 24"iMac 2.8GHz Intel core 2 duo to my Apple TV? I am running Mountain Lion and My iMac is an early 2008 model. Thanks

    I purchased Apple TV yesterday strictly to mirror my desktop to my TV. Now I find out my desktop is not supported? How can I mirror my iMac to my Apple TV? I am running Mountain Lion and the iMac is a 2.8 GHz with intel core 2 duo from early 2008.
    Thanks for your help!

    You cannot officially do this Apple's way as they do not support your computer for Airplay.
    There is a software solution called Airparrot that you may want to demo:

  • Intel iMac running 10.5.8. Belonged to a relative who has passed away. I want to wipe all data and give the iMac to my grandson. I have no install discs. How do I proceed?

    Intel iMac running 10.5.8. Belonged to a relative who has passed away. I want to wipe all data and give the iMac to my grandson. I have no install discs. How do I proceed?

    Contact Apple (call AppleCare) and for a nominal fee the discs will be replaced.  You can do that or purchase Snow Leopard (still availble from Apple for $20) and do an erase and install of OS X making the machine like a new machine.

    It would depend on how old your IMac is, how mush memory you have, it it can be upgraded by OWC, etc. I have a 2006 Macbook Pro and would NOT put Mavericks on it or espeacially FCP 10.1.1 on it because the most memory it can have is 4 GB. You need at least 8 GB to work with Final Cut Pro 10.1.1. IMHO.
      I would try to find a copy of Final Cut Express perhaps.
      Does this answer your question?

  • How do you upgrade OS X 10.4.11 tiger to a higher version of operating system such as OS x 10.5.6 as have tried running the upgrade disc on imac 5,1 with intel processor but only get message saying this cannot be installed with no further explanation ?

    how do you upgrade OS X 10.4.11 tiger to a higher version of operating system such as OS X 10.5.6 as have tried running the upgrade disc on imac 5,1 with intel processor but only get message saying this cannot be installed with no further explanation ?

    Retail Leopard disc looks like this;
    (The disc itself has the same logo). If the one you've got is grey it simply won't work.
    Given the retail and second hand prices of Leopard (usually some on Amazon MP), you'll probably find it cheaper to go directly to Snow Leopard, although there could be software updates and printer driver problems that could nullify the difference.

  • Clarification on migration from iMac G5 running 10.4.11 to new intel iMac

    Hello,
    Although a lot of you have already posted on this subject, I just wanted to get a clarification, please. I just got a new intel iMac and I would like to transfer all my files from my iMac G5 (10.4.11). Should I just use the Migration Assistant and that's it? Will the two OS conflict with each other? And also, is it possible to continue to use 10.4.11 on my new iMac?
    Thank you very much! I hope Ms. Miriam reads this one. She seems to be very knowledgeable!
    -Pedro

    Not Miriam, but...
    You can use Migration Assistant to go from a Tiger Mac to a Leopard Mac. You will be running the Migration Assistant utility on the new iMac. You might employ FireWire Target Disk Mode (on the old iMac) as part of the process, to connect the two Macs.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    A new iMac has one FireWire 800 port and no FireWire 400 port (which is the type on the iMac G5). So you will need to get a 9-pin (800) to 6-pin (400) adapter, or a cable that has an 800 end and a 400 end (if you want to use the FireWire method for connection). They are available here
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/FIR1369AD/
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/1394B96036/
    You can also use a wired or wireless network connection between the two Macs, to do the data transfer.
    And also, is it possible to continue to use 10.4.11 on my new iMac?
    No. Macs can generally run the OS that came with it, or LATER (up to hardware limitations), but not earlier. So if the new iMac had 10.5.6 pre-installed, it cannot run any earlier version of Mac OS X.

  • Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004 not running on Intel iMac

    SIGH. This is added to the enormous list of problems I've had with my new Intel iMac.
    I'm a pro user and am confused as to why Dreamweaver MX will run but I can't get Flash MX 2004 Professional to run. It starts up, loads fonts and what not, shows a blank timeline for the new document as it should and as soon as the GUI for Flash comes up ka-boom it crashes.
    Then I get the general "unexpectedly quit" notification.

    I'm on a Mac and don't had this problem. But I do watch for
    video issues on this site and haven't seen this – I might
    have missed a few, but most Flash users are on Windows so I think
    it would be common if it were something wrong with Flash in
    general.
    Then again, what do I know? Because the more I'm thinking
    about it the more I think I might have had this problem. But I
    really can't remember. And sorry to say the solution was to not use
    the import function to edit my videos.
    You also might want to just see if it is the format of the
    file you are importing. Perhaps a different source will work
    better? I'm just grasping at straws here.
    If you have many of these to do and a budget I suggest
    getting a third party tool like Squeeze. Otherwise if you have some
    third party editor you might want to use that.
    Good luck!
