Snow Leopard way to unstable for me, going back to Leopard
Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me.
I did a clean installation from Leopard, reformated my hard disk and started all new.
Since day one I had constant Kernel Panics, I have to hold de power button of my computer to boot up again. Sometimes the only thing running is Safari with two or three tabs open.
No idea what's causing the problem. Just now I was creating a DVD using iDVD, spent hours editing in iMovie then encoding the file when I had another **** kernel panic.
I am furious I lost all my work!!
This is the last report I sent to Apple, if someone could read it and find the cause I will be extremely grateful.

When I use PSCS5 after having upgraded to Mavericks I have problems when I use the RAW converter. The glider for exposure goes back to sero, hven I use the glider for fill in light, that means that my PSCS5 program not can be used. What do I do?
Single click on the Home button. Then double click on the Home button. In the recently used row, touch and hold the Contact app till they start to wiggle and then tap the minus sing by the contacts app.
Also make sure the Contact program on your computer is closed. -
Too many issues with upgrading to OS6 for BB9700 - Going back to OS5
I upgraded to os6 severay days ago. Here are the pros and cons (from a non technical perspective)
PROS:
* New look of the calendar and text .... easier on the eyes with different colors
CONS:
* Don't know why but after only a few days, I have to reset the BB 4 to 5 times today. It just locked up and I had to pull the battery.
* THE KILLER - BB developer decided to force the browser to go to my company's network BES, instead of my cellphone carrier's 3G network. Because the company puts so much restraints and limits on accessing the internet from their network, so many websites are locked and off limit.
In the past w OS5. I had 2 icons of browsers, one for the company's browser and one regular browser. I can go to the advanced options to direct the regular browser to go my cellphone carrier 3g network. It worked so well.
Now with OS6, the developers force users to go through their company's BES network. That is crazy. I pay for the Blackberry and the monthly cell phone and internet data plan, and now I cannot use my phone /internet the way I choose .
If the OS6's developers do not listen to users' complaints on this serious issues, then in the near future as my company allows us to access their email and outlook contacts via droid and Iphone, I will be the first to say good bye to Blackberry.
How many users have the same problem as I?You are confusing RAM with hard drive space - you appear to have the standard amount of RAM (the memory a computer uses to run apps). 4 GB is fine, but considered a minimum - more would be better.
As for the hard drive space (that is the space you have available on your hard drive to read/write): you need 8 GB minimum to install Mountain lion and, as a general rule, you should maintain a minimum of 10 - 15 GB of empty space at all times - more is better there as well. You can find out how much space you have by highlighting your hard drive icon (Macintosh HD icon on your desktop) and control click on it. In the popup window, choose Get Info. Then post the info showing such as Capacity, Used, and Available.
FWIW, Mountain Lion will continue to show in your Purchases because it is available for you to download again should you need it. You obviously have it installed if it shows that you are running 10.8.3 - which, but the way, is not the latest version, so run Software Update: we are up to 10.8.5. -
Is there a way to prevent store from going back to beginning when browsing aps
I'm on an ipad2. When I browse a category in the app store and find something I would like to know more about, I tap on it and it brings me to the detailed page. After viewing the information I want to go back to the list of apps. When I do it takes me back to the beginning of the category at app number one, I then have to go thru. Page after page to get back to where I was previously, if I'm on app 556 of 3456. You can see that it would take a while. Is there a way I'm missing to take me back to where I left off?
When you connect the device open iTunes and select it from the sidebar. Click on the Summary tab in the main window. Uncheck the option to automatically connect to iTunes. You will find it in the collection of options near the lower part of the window.

Is there a way for my macbook air (running Lion 10.7.2) to access an external hard drive on my Imac (running snow leopard 10.6.8) specifically for Iphoto and itunes?
Yes. For those two applications specifically there is sharing. This presumes both computers are on and connected to the same network.
In iPhoto, enable sharing by (on the iMac) going to the iPhoto menu > Preferences > Sharing > check Share my photos. You can either share the entire library or only selected albums. Now on your MacBook Air, in iPhoto, go to the same preference pane and select Look for shared photos.
iTunes has something similar. In the iTunes menu > Preferences > Sharing > check Share my library on my local network. On the other computer, look in the left column for SHARED and select the iMac. You can now play that music on the MacBook Air.
There are other ways to share files but for those two applications this is the simplest way.
Best of luck. -
Just downloaded FACETIME on my 4yr. olf Imac running Snow Leopard. When making a call to my friend's Imac all works correctly going both ways. When my wife calls me via Facetime from her Ipad, I cannot click on "accept"- not there? When called by the Imac (newest), the "accept" or "reject" radio button appears for me to click and connect. On my wife's Ipad the two radio buttons always appear when a call actiivates Facetime and comes on?
There is nothing I can find in "Preferences" in Facetime to turn that on or off. I suspect it has to do with having a more current operating system; that the "controls" are in the operating system? [I'm guessing] It's frustrating getting Facebook calls from several friends on Ipads! Any ideas...VFPI suspect it has to do with not having a more current operating system
Exactly, what Apple is doing is leveraging new features only on newer OS X versions to force you to upgrade OS X to 10.7 or later.
What they don't tell you is 10.7 or later will NOT run your PowerPC based software, some of it you can't get Intel versions like for perfectly working printers, scanners and games etc. So it can be a very expensive OS X upgrade to 10.7 or later with third party software.
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also they don't tell you is the risk in bricking your machine if the update goes badly, so you have to have AppleCare in case that occurs so it's on them to fix it. Else your paying money to replace the logicboard or buying a new machine prematurely.
A four year old machine can't have AppleCare, it's only good for 3 years from date of purchase new.
Your machine came with a boot hard drive, it's usually got about 4-5 years of life on it, then it needs to be replaced.
Also they don't tell you the newer OS X version has more abilities and features that causes your machine to slow down in performance, especially on older machines.
Also they implement new, idotic and extremely fustrating new user interface features in a arbitrary "you take it or leave it" manner with little or no fall back method.
So upgrading OS X is a gamble on older machines that otherwise would likely work perfectly fine for the next 5 years if one didn't need to have to mess with it.
Since Snow Leopard has slightly over 25% OS X version market share, your still good for security updates etc for the next few years if you just want to stay where your at and be happy.
OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still
The Lions are, well, not so welcome due to Scott Forstall retard UI issues, OS X Mavericks 10.9 is likely going to fix things a bit better.
But basically what is occuring is Apple is trying to force a faster hardware upgrade cycle with the more expensive products by leveraging features on the smaller devices that expire sooner.
Apple is a hardware company that leverages whatever it can to get you to buy more hardware, it's why they are as rich as they are. -
My Mac Book Pro is currently runnng OS X v10.5.8. When I check for updates by clicking the apple icon it tells me that my computer is up to date. What is the easiest way to upgrade to OS X Lion? Do I need to get OS X Snow Leopard first?
Yes, there's been no updates to 10.5.8 for quite awhile, next is paid Upgrades.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It looks like they might still have it...
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
Lion/101.7 System requirements
• x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
• At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
• Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
• At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed. For me to use XCode 4.5, I must have 10.7 or later. What is the best way to go ahead? Should I install OS X Lion and then move to Mountain Lion, or can I straight away install latest Mountain Lion, i.e. 10.8.2
You can directly install Mountain Lion 10.8.0 to 10.6.8, and then apply the 10.8.2 Update.
Hope this helps -
Hello, is there any way of having a reboot disk for lion that I'm downloading, like the one I have with snow leopard ?
Once the Lion download is complete quit the installer and follow these directions. The file you need to make a boot disk disappears after you install Lion.

However, the Lion installation includes a recovery partition. It won't be of help if your entire HD dies but is very handy otherwise. This Knowledge Base article has a lot of good information about Lion's recovery partition.

I have tryed to load mountain lion several times and it just freezes for days on end is ther any way of reversing my dession back to snow leopard as i think it too muctch to dowload and when it does parts are missing and my epson scanner 3170 photo does not work as effeciant as it did i am not to pleased with it at all and think this download should be on a disk.
Not impressed at all.
Best Regards.
PhilIf you don't have a backup make one now of all your own data, you can just drag your Documents folder to another disk, assuming that is where you keep your own data. Then erase the disk with Disk Utility by booting up holding cmd-r. Choose Disk Utility > Erase tab from the screen that is presented. Then install from your SL disk.

I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?
Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using. -
I went to back up on the Seagate Free Agent I've been using for almost a year. I got the message, "the disk you inserted is not readable by this computer." What do I do now? How can I fix it?
10.7.4 is not Snow Leopard. 10.7.4 is Lion.
Also, is the drive connected via USB or Firewire?
If USB are there other devices on the USB bus?
Are you using Time Machine, Superduper, Carbon Copy Cloner, or another software?. -
I know you have to have snow leopard to download lion via app store. But isn't there a possibilty to buy a bundle or any other way of upgrading without paying double price? So far I can't find any information on the Apple website except you have to have Snow Leopard. I know this implies you gotta get snow leopard. Just wondering if I have to pay the full price.
There is a way but it's unlawful (Violates Apple EUA) - I did post a link in here but Apple deleted it ( To be fair the link did expound some convoluted set of circumstances under which it would be legal, but in reality it was a hack so fair play)
I have read that some "helpful" Apple Store will let you borrow a SL copy but I doubt if that's widespread.
The way to look at it is that Lion is priced as an upgrade from SL - not as a base product, which is why the $29 (or equiv) is actually pretty fair.

Update your Java 6 as previously instructed as it's supplies security fixes.
Java 7 and above is for 10.7 and above, Oracle is dropping support for Java 6.
However all versions of Java have been HIGHLY insecure, so it's advised not to use them at all
If your using Java based programs (like the free LibreOffice) then certainly disable Java in all web browsers and applets in Java Preferences.
Apple has a now annual OS X upgrade cycle that is causing havoc and disqualifying older, but perfectly working machines from running necessary software and dragging third party developers along.
So one shouldn't be running Safari (outdated and no Safari 6), Java 6, very possibly Chrome on OS x 10.6.8, but if you upgrade to 10.7 or above, your machine will perform slower and all your PPC based software will no longer continue to function.
It's sad, because OS X Snow Leopard has 1/4 OS X market share still and many can't upgrade because developers are not issuing 10.7/10.8 versions of their software because of AppStore and Gatekeeper signaling the closing of the operating system in the future.
The 10 year support cycle of Windows versions sounds like blessed relief compared to Apple's annual OS X upgrade nightmare.

Hi
I am trying to update my laptop to Lion for icloud. I am trying to put snow leopard on first but after putting in the disk and restarting my screen is white and it constantly sounds as if it is trying to start or close. Is this right? ThanksSo far so good (I asked because you've posted in the forum for PPC iMacs…).
So what SL disc are you using? The retail 10.6.3 disc (white with the snow leopard pic) or a grey disc borrowed from another Mac?
