Snow Leopard and MS Exchange 2003 -USING OWA-

I have a new 27" iMac with Snow Leopard. I am trying to connect to my company's MS Exchange 2003 via OWA NOT IMAP or POP, OWA. I dont like mail.app or like using iCal for calendering. So I like OWA using Safari or FF.
I also have several other machines in my home office: 8 Macs (Dual G5 - Leopard, 27" iMac - Snow Leopard, G4 Mini - Leopard, 15" Powerbook - Leopard, 15" MacBook Pro - Snow Leopard, 24" iMacs - Snow Leopard, and quad Intel XServe - Tiger) and a couple of Dells one with XP and one with Vista. I'm a geek, can you tell?
On every machine using Leopard and Snow Leopard, I cannot connect to Exchange 2003 OWA using Safari or FF. It takes forever and then once I get the login dialog it eventually times out.
HOWEVER, on Tiger no mater if on Quad Intel XServe or the Dual G5 (I can boot Leopard or Tiger), there are no problems. There are no problems conecting or logging into Exchange via Safari or FF.
Also, to reiterate, XP and Vista on a Dell have no issues, nor does XP on Fusion 3.0 int the 27" iMac.
So it HAS to be related to Leopard and Snow Leopard. Remember it is not an issue of time outs after logging in as some posts on ArsTechnica suggests, here we cant even get to the exchange server in a timely manor. When I ping the server it just sits there.
Ping results
PING chilcoinc.com (72.215.225.9): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
Request timeout for icmp_seq 2
Request timeout for icmp_seq 3
And it just keeps going.
Frankly, I am ****** and don't know what I am to do. I need this access and dread having to be forced into using imap or pop.
Microsoft was been useless. Their solution is Exchange 2007, But they cant seem to understand that I do not want to use mail.app and ical. I want to use the OWA!
Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

From my MBP with 10.6.2 I can connect using OWA both to a hosted service running Exchange 2007 and an internal service running Exchange 2003.
It sounds as if there is a problem with the network configuration. Is there any firewall between your client system and your company server? Are you using the same IP information (DNS, GW, etc) on the client as on the other systems which work for you?

Snow Leopard and Exchange 2007 Configuration Issues

I know this topic may have been covered in here previously but I have yet to find a solution.
Here is the background. Our CEO has a Mac Book and two weekends ago he updated to Snow Leopard and now wants to use the Mail client on his Mac rather than OWA to get his email. We have Exchange 2007 (I am the Admin) and have all the latest patches and Roll Ups installed. We run OWA without issue and have 10 iPhones working perfectly (i realized they use different technology to sync). I enabled EWS by following this link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb201695.aspx and this is the actual command i used:
Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -identity exchaname\EWS* -externalurl https://webmail.domain.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx -BasicAuthentication:$True
Seems to have run properly and there are no errors reported.
Now when I go to connect using the Mac it does not Auto Discover and I must enter manually. I enter what i think it needed and its not working. On the Account Information Tab I have the following:
Description: generic name
Email Address: [email protected]
Full Name: The Person's Name
Internal Server: webmail.domain.com *Not sure what should be here
External Server: Webmail.domain.com *Again not sure if this is correct
Username: AD user name Also tried domain\username
Password: AD password
Ougoing Mail Server: not sure what should be here
Next is the Mailbox behavior Tab:
Did not change anything
Advanced Tab:
Internal Server Path: EWS/Exchange.asmx
Port:80 SSL unchecked
External Server: EWS/Exchange.asmx
Port: 80 SSL unchecked
I get no connections and I am sure somehting is not correct in the above but I am lost and new to Exchange as it is. Also new to Mac's
Help Please

We are already using webmail.domain.com for our OWA URL, well actually it is webmail.domain.com\OWA. Would I need one for the EWS & Autodiscover to use webmail.domian.com\ews?
We have rules in the firewall for Exchange and OWA. Would we need another for this?

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion. Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine. Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer. I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs. Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it. Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

Am using Macbook pro mid 2010 running on OSX 10.9.5. It does not read my old Seagate back up plus ITB ext hard disk which opens and works on snow leopard. The back ups were made on snow leopard and mountain lion. How do I make it work on Mavericks?

I have been making back ups on a Seagate Back up plus drive on a macbook pro running on Mountain lion. Sadly the mac was stolen and all I had was the seagate back up. I tried opening it on my old iMac running on snow leopard and after several visits to this forum managed to open it. The data was safe and sound. Now I have received a hand me down macbook pro which runs on osx 10.9.5. I'm assuming there is a compatability issue as the drive does not come on at all when I hook it up to the usb port. I checked the seagate drive once again on the imac and its light came on on that system. Then I suspected there may be a problem with this macbook pro usb port. But it seemed to work fine when i hooked my camera cord into it. Is it that I must reinstall mavericks. In which case how do I back up before reformatting or reinstalling. BTW I did the command+ R thingy and repaired my internal Hard disc which was showing errors. What do I do next, your help is most appreciated if you have had a similar problem.

Your 2010 MBP would be able to handle Yosemite, but I would strongly suggest that you get the current problem sorted out before trying to upgrade to Yosemite. I'd also recommend another backup that isn't created by Time Machine if you are thinking of upgrading. SuperDuper and CarbonCopyCloner can make bootable clones of hard drives. If you clone your existing system to a fresh external drive, you would be able to boot from that drive and recover quickly in the event that your Yosemite upgrade didn't work out. Time Machine backups are not 100% reliable.
It's possible that, if your internal HD is the one that shipped with your MBP in 2010, it may be failing. If it keeps needing repairs, that is probably a sign that it is approaching the end of its useful life.
Have you run Disk Utility's Repair tool on the external drive as well?
I mentioned the hub because some people have reported here that attaching their USB 3 drives through a USB 2 hub solved some disconnection problems. A good-quality powered USB 2 hub won't cost much.
My most recent brush with random disconnections involved a nice new OWC drive enclosure. I used the cable that came with the drive, but the drive kept disconnecting. Using a different cable solved the problem. You wouldn't expect that what appeared to be a high quality cable would be a problem straight out of the box, but it was.

Hi.
You simply can't. Snow Leopard is compiled in Intel binary only.
Good Luck.

We are having old home movies put on DVD's. How do we import them to MacBook Pro using Snow Leopard and iMovie 8.0.6. Can watch the video, but can't get it to import.

We are having old home movies put on DVD's. How do we import them to MacBook pro using Snow Leopard and iMovie 8.0.6? Can watch the movies on the laptop, but they will not import.

We took 3 video cassette 8mm that were recorded in the early 90's to a place that burned the videos onto 3 DVDs. When inserted to our Mac, the DVD player comes on to play the DVD. Opened Quicktime, but can find no way to import. Went to File>Open File>Sony_DVD_Recorder_Volume. Clicked on Sony_DVD-Recorder_Volume and it shows a file named VIDEO_TS. Clicked on that and 6 files showed VIDEO_TS.BUP, VTS_01-0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS-01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB. Where is DVDxDV?

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

Thanks for the reply. I tried playing with detaching the audio in iMovie, but with 20+ hours of video to correct, it would take too long. After 28 hours, Corel/Roxio tech support replied that it is a known bitrate mismatch problem and they have no real fix. I strongly suggest not to buy this product.

Using iCloud mail in Snow Leopard - AND restoring old mail system

I use Snow Leopard and cannot upgrade to Lion since my MacBook Pro is too old.
Apple discontinued my traditional Mail service last week and said it is now transferred to iCloud.
1. Is there any way I can get my traditional Mail service restored since I like it better than the "improved?" iCloud-based mail service.
2. What I don't like about the new iCloud-based mail service is...
a. Sent mail does not always appear in my Sent folder.
b. When wanting to file a recent mail message away, I have to scroll thru all the folders AND many, many sub-folders. The system does not let me hide the sub-folders so I don't have to scroll so long.
c. It seems as if the iCloud mail speed is much slower than the old non-iCloud mail service.
d. It is very hard to make to Contacts for ease in sending mail
3. IF there is no way to get my traditional mail service restored, is there a way to get the "classic" look if I am forced to use the iCloud mail system?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

HT204053 I had Snow Leopard and was using iWeb and Filezilla for my website (not MobileMe). Wanting to move to single-click publishing, I now find it is not supported by iCloud and Mountain Lion. I feel cheated, having bought it mainly for this purpose!

The other thing they don't tell you is that Mountain Lion disables OfficeMac, and I am considering uninstalling it for that reason - do I get my money back?!

You stated; "Mountain Lion disables OfficeMac"
That is not true.
Mountain Lion does not have Rosetta so it is not capable of executing PowerPC code. If you have MS Office 2004 that is coded in PowerPC code and will not run in Mountain Lion. What you need to do is upgrade to an Intel version of Office.

MacBook 2.1 Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz 2GB Late 2006. The harddrive died. Replaced with a WD 320. Have used TimeMachine with a WD160 for several months. Tried to install Snow Leopard and use restore from the TimeMachine backup. Will not start.

Harddrive died and replaced it with a new WD 320. Used Snow Leopard to intall OS Disk Utility to Restore from TimeMachine. It appears to have 'pasted' the backup from TimeMachine on to the WD320. Tried to start OS and it says that WD320 is a backup and won't run from it. What do I do?

I re-reinstalled Snow Leopard and restarted. It is working fine!!!!

My Mac Book Pro will be 4 years old in Sept. I now have Snow Leopard and bought an IPhone 4S this week. I know I need Lion to use ICloud. Can I upgrade to Lion with a computer this old?

Hello friends!I use mac book(2.4 GHz intel core 2 duo).is it worth updating to snow leopard and then lion?if so how to do so?

Hello I use mac book 2.4 GHz intel core 2 duo.Is it worth updating to latest version like snow leopard and then Lion or buying new mac air?

Well, it depends on what you expect it to do and if it works as expected - it that answer is yes, I'd say make sure you max out the RAM (I've noticed Snow Leopard needs more). Doing it this way gives you a machine which will run 2 different OS versions - on the other hand, depending on when you'd buy the MBA, you may only be able to run Lion (unless you buy that quickly as well while they still come with SL).

Does mountain lion comes with graphic, Does mountain lion comes with graphi, Does mountain lion comes with graphic driver updates? I'm currently using snow leopard, and it seems that there's no graphic driver updates for a really long time.

Need some advice

I'm currently using snow leopard, and it seems that there's no graphic driver updates for a really long time.
Snow Leopard is no longer being updated, 10.6.8, was the last update. So, a "really long time," will be forever.
Yes, ML has graphic driver updates, but since there is no way to guess whether it impacts your unmentioned hardware, there is no way your question can be answered.

Using a single ext drive for both Snow Leopard and Mtn Lion?

I still have no iOS device (gasp), and I frankly don't like the differences I keep reading about the iOSsy Mtn Lion, as contrasted with Snow Leopard (on my 08 MBP). But yeah, I know I have to make the jump eventually. Meanwhile I'm thinking of getting a new 2TB external drive, creating a 1TB partition for each system. (The present Snow Leopard drive is about 740GB). That way I can get to know Mtn Lion while I still have the long-term tried and true personalized folder hierarchy in Snow Leopard—until I'm ready to give up SL completely.
(I know I could just put Mtn Lion on the external; I prefer two partitions simply for the convenience of adding another external backup for the SL system.)
Does this make sense? Does it seem practical? I welcome any suggestions or concerns. Thanks.

Yes, you can partition any drive into two volumes and install Snow Leopard on one and Mountain Lion on the other. If you don't yet have Mountain Lion then you need to install Snow Leopard on both partitions to start. The volume on which you will put Mountain Lion needs to be updated to 10.6.8. Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
You can then run the App Store application to purchase and download Mountain Lion to install on this volume.
To save time you do not have to install Snow Leopard on the volume being used for Mountain Lion. But you will need to install it on the other volume so you can get the Mountain Lion installer unless you already have it.
Purchase and download Mountain Lion. When the Mountain Lion installer opens click on the Install button. Select the Other disks link in order to select your blank volume, then click on the Install button to put Mountain Lion on the blank volume.

My MACBOOK Pro turned out to be Snow Leopard, and later upgraded to LION. And update the EFI, I would like to replace the Snow Leopard, EFI can not boot, how do? How to use the Snow Leopard install disk to reduce EFI?

Do you mean some of your software does not work in Lion? Do you want to return to using Snow Leopard? If so, then do this:
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.
