[SOLVED] Downgrading python / installing a previous version

Hi!
I need to install Python 2.6 (I have the package, from my other arch box), it's the newest version which works with Google App Engine SDK. The problem is, that there already exists package python2 2.7 (which is required by openoffice,  dbus-python and other cruical programs down the dependency chain) and it conflicts with the python package.
Is it possible to install Python 2.6 (i only need it for Google App Engine) without losing all the apps that depend on Python 2.7?

No...  just install python-2.6 alongside your current python package.  There is a PKGBUILD in the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41809  (read the comments).

    I'm not sure I understand the question, is the message tone going more then once?
    Turn off repeat message alert here:
    settings > notifications > messages > repeat alert > never
    Some people have found this does not stop the repeat miessage tone,
    if you are one of those then I suggest you contact Apple:

    They may not respond, but hopefully will fix in uodate if enough people complain.

  • After upgrading to firefox 7, I can't use many of the features on my schools secure website. So, how do I install a previous version of firefox?

    After upgrading to firefox 8, I can't use many of the functions on my schools website like opening the textbook and sending emails. I spoke the school's tech. support & they informed me that my version of firefox was not compatible with their system. So, how do I install a previous version of firefox (firefox 6 to be exact)?

    You can download Firefox 6.0.2 for Mac OS X 10.5 from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/6.0.2/
    Backup your '''Profiles''' folder before new installation.
    edit: replaced random third-party download site link.

    yes, both apps could run simultanously...

  • Installing 10.4 upgrade without installing ALL previous versions first

    Just replaced the hard drive in my iMac. When I tried to reinstall 10.4 I was prompted that it was an upgrade and I would have to install 10.3 first. So I put in 10.3 and got the same message looking for 10.2.
    I do have all the previous OS disks but am wondering if there is a quicker way to install 10.4 without first installing all the previous versions first.
    Thanks

    I don't know if this could help, but in the past it solved some installation problems for me: reset the PRAM, it is innocuous anyway. To do it you'll need to reboot while pressing cmdopt+"P""R", then you'll hear a new dong sound, keep'em pressd for a new dong and so up to a third one, then release and try 10.4 install again.
    PS: If your imac is the latest G5 you'll not able to install 10.4 with the original tiger disks since its minimun bootable OS is 10.4.2. You'll need the restoring disk then.

  • CS5 upgrade without installing 3 previous versions?

    So I am currently running CS3 upgraded from CS2 Upgraded from ps6.
    Is there a way that I can purchase the C5 upgrade without installing the three previous versions?
    I am purchasing two new computers to replace the older computers in my house.
    I have cs3 running on three computers in my house (new are replacing older models.).
    I am paying for one of my 3 sons to attend college.  I have thought about a student version but understand that there are limitations.
    Can anyone help?

    The Educational version is a great way to go - it is  functionally identical to the commercial version, usually without the extra fonts and such.

  • Need to install a previous version of Illustrator

    I'm having issues with Illustrator CC 2014. It's slow as hell on my new iMac. On my other system, I have the the older "CC" version and it's fine. Can I install the older CC version AND have 2014 on my system at the same time? (it does not show up in my little options pulldown menu in the CC control panel). Can I do this without having to uninstall CC2014?  If so, how?

    Yes, yes and yes. they are completely separate versions. Simply check the filter options at the bottom of the CC app and select previous versions.

  • HT200213 How do I purchase Apple Remote Desktop but install a previous version for my 10.6.8 Mac?

    I need to install Apple Remote Desktop to help a client but the App store only shows that the latest version is compatible with OS X 10.7. I found where I can download the 3.5.3 version of the app (compatible with OS X 10.6.8) but when I try to install it, it says it can't install because it can't find where the app is currently installed in order to update it. I don't want to pay the $80 for the latest version only to find that it won't install on my 10.6.8 and still be unable to install an older version of the app that DOES work with 10.6.8. Any ideas what I should do? I don't have a problem paying the $80 but I just need to make sure I will be able to use the software I pay for.
    Please Help.
    Thanks

    Ok, maybe I have answered my own questions in doing more research. I guess if I want/need the latest version and I have OS X 10.7, I can purchase it from the app store. If I need a previous version, I can purchase a retail packaging version of Apple Remote Desktop 3 from various vendors online. Once purchased and installed, I should be able to install update 3.5.3 to be on the latest version my OS will support. Does that sound correct? I just want to make sure I do this right.

  • Hod do I uninstall Numbers 3.0 and install the previous version?

    I am on OS X Mavericks.
    Thanks,
    Alex Neuman

    Hi Alex,
    If you had the previous version, it is still on your Mac, in a subfolder within your Applications folder called iWork '09 or similar.  You can run both versions if you want. If you edit a document on Numbers 3.0 you can export it back to the previous version via the menu File > Export to... Numbers '09.
    If you have never had the previous version, you can buy it on the major onlne retailers as a boxed set. Look for iWork '09.
    For more information on the differences between the two, you might be interested in reading the features gained, features lost, and workarounds threads.

  • How do a install a previous version of the find my iphone so I may continue to use it in my iPod Touch 4?

    A reset my iPod Touch 4 and now I can't use the Find my iPhone anymore because the version of that app I have is not supported by the IOS 6.1.5.
    Anyway I can reinstall previous version, like the 2.0.2?
    Thanks

    Hi...
    Sorry, but I didn't understand your post because, fortunately, I have found an old version of the app (2.0 compatible with the IOS 6.1.5) and managed to reinstall it back to my iPod Touch. It is working pretty good, showing me the location of the device etc. I even received an e-mail telling me a sound was played when I asked the app to do so from the icloud site.
    The only thing I should care now is to avoid automatic updates to the device.
    My next step is trying to do the same with Pages and Keynote. The new updates are not compatible with IOS 6.1.5 either.
    Anyway, thanks for your concerne trying to help me.
    regards,
    Mauro
