Snow Leopard pre-order offer
Hi!
I want to use the Snow Leopard pre-order offer. I can order it now, before 8th of september 2009 and get it for 89 NOK, which is about $15.
I've bought and ordered my Macbook Pro 13.3" from Apple Online Store 18th of July and received it at 30th of July.
When I click the link below I get an option to order Snow Leopard for 89 NOK, however when I log in and is redirected to the shopping basket, it's empty. I've tried many times, but no success.
http://www.apple.com/no/macosx/uptodate/?aosid=p204&siteid=1348144&program_id=37 884&tduid=2dc090ac71d6e6cc0e2b6fe3d950efac
Anyone know how I can do it? Is this a bug?
I tried calling Apple but that didn't help much, they pretty much didn't care.
And is there a support forum where I can submit a ticket or something, so I'll get a direct answer from Apple?
I actually managed to solve the problem. Originally I was following the link I was suggested to follow since I bought my mac at the online Apple Store. Now, however, I tried following the link belonging to the option of having bought the mac at a physical store. The form I filled in looked the same and I was taken to the Apple Store and Snow Leopard was in my shopping cart. Hope this works for you as well!

I have an imac (2009) with OS X 10.5.8 and i need to install the new itunes (10.7) in order to sync my new nano (7th generation). Do I have to upgrade my software to Snow Leopard in order to run itunes 10.7? How to I go about this?
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

I have an early 2008 iMac running iOs 10.5.8.It has a 2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo. I need to upgrade to at least iOs 10.6 Snow Leopard in order to install the driver for a new HP OfficeJetPro 8610 printer. Which version of 10.6 would be the best for this Mac and how do I go about upgrading?
Click here and buy the DVD.

I bought a MacBook Pro 13" last week with Snow Leopard pre-installed. Now I am looking to upgrade to Lion. Is there a 30 day window to do that for free? I cannot review my App Store id since I do not have a Credit Card. What to do in this case to install Lion. Please help.

I am contemplating purchasing an iPad, and then possibly a Macbook pro. Currently, I have an iMac G5, and a Powerbook G4. Neither which can be upgraded past Leopard. My question is do I need to have Snow Leopard in order to be able to update an iPad? Do I need to reverse my thought on which to buy first?
I plan on keeping the iMac and PB until they cease to work ( have replaced HD's on both already). I mostly use the PB-- lots of writing, surfing, email, etc.
Your thoughts?The minimum Mac specs (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) are :
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.2 or later recommended (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access
So you only need Leopard, not Snow Leopard -
I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.
The only reason I upgraded to Mavericks was because my Snow Leopard OS was 32 bit, which I was told would support only 4GB of RAM.
That wasn't quite right. You can put in as much RAM as your Mac's hardware supports. The division is in the apps themselves. A 32 bit app can't use more than 4 GB or RAM. A 64 bit app can use much more.
For example, as a 32 bit only version, Photoshop CS3 can't use more 4GB of RAM, no matter how much you actually have installed. CS4 or later can use all the RAM you want to throw at it. -
hi there, i want to upgrade to snow leopard in order to purchase lion os from the snowleopard store. The problem is that i can't find a shop selling original snowleopard os dvd in my country. Why don't you keep an online s.leopard version so we can purchase it ?!
Hi,
Have you tried your country's online Apple Store? Snow Leopard is still available on mine, here in the UK. Otherwise, your best chance is eBay. You might also try CeX.
Good luck,

I currently have OS X Leopard on a macbook. No where in the entire country that I live stocks Snow Leopard in order to upgrade. So can anyone tell me how I am supposed to upgrade to Lion without access to Snow Leopard first? arrrrgg! Thanks
If by "posted to you" you mean shipped, yes. Usually UPS or FedEx is used by Apple. Note that you may need to access the Online Store that's for your country. If you are not in the US then you cannot purchase it for shipment outside of the US. You can use this link to find the store that serves your country: Change Country. You will find it at the bottom of the Online Store page.

My problems started when I upgraded my iPhone's software to iOS 7.
I have moved from Melbourne, VIC to Perth, WA and my PC is in Melbourne. I live with my Girlfriend, and so I mainly use her desktop Mac to connect to iTunes, so you could imagine my surprise when I tried to connect after the fresh update and discovered that my iPhone will no longer connect to iTunes.
It appears as though you need iTunes 11 to connect with a iOS 7 device, which I was not aware of prior to the update. I then learnt that in order to upgrade to iTunes 11 you need OS X 10.6.8 or later.
Now I'm not very proficient with apple products (I always had an iRiver and PC) so while trying to find the right product on the mac store, I got seriously frustrated. Every time I thought I found what I was looking for, I would click "View in the mac store" which would not take me to a buy or download link, rather literally just a showcase of the features. I went in circles for over a **** hour trying to navigate the store. Finally I found the page where I could actually buy the software and found out you can't simple just download the update, you have to order it, which took about a month before it arrived.
I've just installed it ONLY to find it it's 10.6.3! WHICH IS COMPLETELY USELESS TO ME.
I searched for hours, and was assured that Snow Leopard was exactly what I needed to download the new iTunes. I don't know what to do, I'm not like every other apple customer, I don't have a lot of money, and this phone was a gift so the money I used to buy this update actually sent me broke for 2 weeks. Not to mention it's not even for my own computer, I need to know how to get my money back, and WHAT VERSION I NEED TO PUT MUSIC ON THIS **** PHONE.
I'm sorry if I've come off like every other appleh8tr. I just hate when I'm forced to buy something that does a lot of things when I only need it for one specific purpose. I've already had to buy a new charger cable, and after all of this, my account is frozen because I can't pay for a $1 app I tried to download (unsuccessfully)
Please helpT here is a table you can search that has all the various programs and versions
http://www.roaringapps.com
T here are tutorials or were on MacIntouch on what to do.
My advice is always and with Lion even more so to do a clean install, leave the old system as is, use a new drive and format it with Lion, and that way you make a clean break and clean out any carried apps and processes, which you can reinstall if Setup Assistant doesn't.
Expect to do some hardware upgrades as you go along, more RAM, maybe even higher quality, graphic cards, and start wtih a fresh system drive, a new drive for TimeMachine, and a drive to clone your system, clone your user volumes.
How to clone your system:

Dual boot drive - Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard - Correct order to load software /apps?
Hi
I want to create a dual boot drive for Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard as some of my hardware (is not supported in Mountain Lion).
I am happy how to do this, I just want to know if there is a correct way to install software and apps.
My plan was to do a clean install of both using two partitions, the larger going to ML and smaller one for SL. I was going to install SL from the DVD and then after updating from 10.6. to 10.6.8 and download ML from the app store and install on the larger partition.
Do I install all the software I use like Final Cut, Aperture, iLife (for Garageband) etc on the ML or SL partition or on both. Also, is there a better way / practise of the order software updates / apps and boxed software should be installed when doing a clean machine install.
Thanks in advance.
MattThanks mende1
So, if I have software I need to use on both ML and SL - for example Final Cut as I have a Canopus AVDC box which is not supported in ML but only SL, do I need to install the same software in both OS?
I usually open apps using spotlight and didn't know if it would software / apps would open if already installed on the other partition?
Thanks again

Hi there!
Having accepted the job of ”operating” our school website got me in a fix when Adobe decided to keep Dreamweaver and kill goLive: I am not really good at creating websites so that only with a lot of help did I manage to create the one we have online now, and since I see no way of instantly acquiring any Dreamweaver expertise and creating a new website, I need to find a way to emulate Mac OS Leopard (non-server!) on my new iMac 2011 i7 / Snow Leopard (on which goLive and its extensions (MenuMachine) don't run). So far I've tried Parallels 7 and VMWare Fusion 4, both only accept the Mac OS Leopard Server software. Is there any other way or programme that may do the trick? Or, if there isn't, does anyone out there know whether buying (and installing) the server software would do the trick ? I've seen eBay offers at about 200€, but such an investment would only make sense if there is a guarantee that it would let me install goLive plus extensions and that I am able to handle the software (never had a server and never had any aspirations in that field). Can somebody help, please?
Thanks.At this point, the best (and cheapest) solution is to upgrade your website. Even if you get an old machine or have a working emulator, things will change (as you have already witnessed), making it more and more difficult to use the old software.
Trying to stick to the outdated system is too costly and short-sighted in my opinion. ...unless your website has something so wildly celebrated by the users that it cannot be changed AND cannot be run by anything other than GoLive.
BUT ANYWAY... yes, OS X can be emulated, but it is technically illegal. You would have to buy and maintain an older piece of hardware and hope it never breaks, or break the law. -
Macbook Pro with snow leopard pre-installed
Does anyone know when the retail apple store locations will have the 13inch MBP pre-installed with snow leopard? i called up the local apple stores in my area and they still dont have these yet, maybe they need to get rid of old stock? i understand that snow leopard comes pre-installed when purchased online but i dont want to do that.
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Are you sure? You realize if you ever find a software title that is not Snow Leopard compatible, but is with older versions of Mac OS X, and you buy a Mac with Snow Leopard prebundled, there likely will be no way of going back to Leopard or earlier. This has been the case with all new Macs once they come prebundled with a new operating system.
Unless you are 100% certain of Snow Leopard compatibility, I would be happy to have this reprieve. -
Mario 7 button set pre order offer
Hello, I just came across this promo where you pre order 2 select Wii u or 3ds titles and get a free 7 button set of Mario. I just pre ordered Mario Maker tonight, but then I read where it said on June 17 the list of select titles will be available. My question is will my pre order count twards that offer even though I pre ordered it now? I'm assuming Mario Maker will be one of the games. Thank You for your time
Hello there criticalmass33-
I can appreciate your concerns after not seeing anything appear on your order when you placed it for the Super Mario Bros. 7 button set! It looks very cool and should be a nice bonus to pre-ordering these games.
Because of the time frame involved in the promotion and the spacing of these titles, there would not be anything on your actual order or on the in-store receipt. However, we should be reviewing all orders placed during the promotional time frame (6/17/15-7/11/15) for those that qualified and sending out an email with the coupon for the button set. Once we have more details, we will post them here if possible, otherwise, if you don’t see your coupon once they’ve gone out, let us know by posting on the Gaming boards.
Thanks!

Snow Leopard Message Order Scrambled?
When I just viewed the posts in the Snow Leopard section at
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=263&start=0#threads
they weren't appearing in reverse chronological order as is usual. The first message was from Feb. 6th, then Feb. 9th, Feb. 8th, Feb. 10th. Each time I visit that URL the list of messages changes dramatically. Is this a problem that someone should fix?jeffd55 wrote:
Posts in the out of order topics you are talking about had a number of extra blank lines in them. This was causing the threads to be unnecessarily long. They were edited to remove the blank lines and this editing caused them to be "bumped" and appear out of order from the date of the last post.
Thanks for the explanation. It's too bad you can't apply such an edit without disturbing the ordering of the messages. Perhaps that could be added to the wish list for the discussion group software. (If such a thing exists, I hope some of my suggestions are on it!) -
Snow Leopard Pre-release forum???
Will we see a pre-release forum for Snow Leopard? A few questions are starting to surface in the Leopard forums.

Alessandro ~ Many people must have already successfully installed a beta on a MacBook with Intel Processor and 2 Gb Ram — otherwise Apple wouldn't be releasing Snow Leopard on Friday. Since your Mac appears to meet the general requirements, what exactly is your concern?
By the way, here's a list of applications and their compatibilty status with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — the site may be slow to load:
