Sync for iMac G5 OSX 10.4.6 with TREO 700w PDA SmartPhone - addresses, iCal

iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

I'll be more specific (learning how to use this online discussion tool): I have decided to purchase a TREO 700w PDA SmartPhone, but there is so much attention to it being Windows based that I want to be sure it will sync effectively (without cumbersome extra steps) with my iMac G5 10.4.6. There is so much that does NOT sync, work, or otherwise operate with an iMac (I had no idea this would be the case when I switched from a PC to an iMac) that I want to take every caution to purchase a compatible PDA phone--compatible in the sense that I can use the information data base I already have input into (for instance) my address book and schedule.
Do you have or can you get information about the TREO 700w that will confirm I can buy it and get everything to sync in both directions (to/from) my iMac tools??
Thank you

  • I have an iMac on OSX 10.7.5 with Safari 6.1.6. Opening Safari produces a popup that cannot be removed, thus disabling everything else. How can I eliminate this?

    Launch Safari with the Shift key held down. If that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.

  • How can i get my Imac, running OSX 10.6.8 with a 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, how can i get Final Cut Pro 4 and DVD studio pro 2 to run on it?

    I just bought an IMAC running OSX 10.6.8 (not sure what flavor that is). The processor is 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo (Late 2006). When i run Final Cut Pro 4 on it I get the following error.
                        "Configuration error
                           This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing
                                    * AGP graphics Card"
    If Final Cut Pro 4 doesn't run on my system, what version of Final Cut can I run on this as I am a filmmaker and really am comfortable with Final Cut Pro.
    On the same note I also have DVD studio Pro 2 and that just quits without any message.
    Hope any of you can be some help.
    Thank you,

    This is my first mac in a long time so i'm not sure about what this mac is as i didn't buy this from apple (ala Amazon). I'm a tad confused about the Intel/PowerPC thing. I do know the software version for sure, but the Intel/PowerPC is very confusing. I just need to find someone who would know about this question. It doesn't say G5 on this computer. Thats my biggest confusion. Help Me...

  • Locating drivers for Imac 24" (Early 2008) to work with Vista 32 bit

    Hi all. I'm really having trouble with my Mac and was wondering if anyone has an alternative.
    I have an Apple iMac "Core 2 Duo" 2.8 24-Inch (Early 2008) running OSX 10.5.8. I recently partition my hard disk using Bootcamp and installed Windows Vista 32 bit.
    This is where the problem starts. I misplaced the driver DVD's that came with the mac and i am in dire need of the drivers especially for the video card (ATI Radeon HD 2600 pro). I was able to download the drivers for the video card but, anytime i try to install or play a game for example, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare it always give me a error that no drivers were found and the game crashes.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?
    Does the Apple website provide drivers for Imac 24" drivers for Windows Vista 32 bit?

    Patrick,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You will either need to find your install discs that came with the computer or contact Apple and they will replace them for a nominal charge.
    Going forward keep these and other original installation media in a safe place.
    Regards,
    Roger

  • Syncing iMac (Lion OSX 10.7.4) with Desktop Manager

    I recently updated to Lion 10.7.4 on my iMac, and now I cannot sync from the desktop computer to my Bold 9650 - but syncing does work from the Bold to my computer - in other words it used to be a perfect 2 way sync but now it's 1 way only - any advice?
    RIM told me they are aware of this but have no answer as it's an Apple responsibility, but Apple of course say that it's the responsibility of 3rd pary applications to work with their software - and we're left in the middle!!
    Help!

    In the future, please state exactly what you tried that didn't work so as to not duplicate troubleshooting suggestions and in this case, which browser you are using to access the net. Thank you
    Try this DNS server.
    Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
    Click + and type:
    208.67.222.222
    Click + again and do the same.
    208.67.220.220
    Click OK.
    Quit and relaunch your browser.
    If that didn't help, open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Proxies. Deselect any checked boxes on the left, quit and relaunch your browser to test.
    If that didn't help, assuming you are using Safari, try troubleshooting Safari extensions and third party plugins.
    Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plug-ins.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that off if there are any installed. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn extensions back on then uninstall one a time to test.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Cannot Sync iTunes 10.6.3 (iMac PPc OsX 10.5.8) with new iPhone 5s

    Recently purchased an iPhone 5s.  When I connected the phone via USB, an error message popped up saying "iTunes cannot recognize "iPhone". Update to iTunes 11."
    I cannot update to iTunes 11.  My computer is an iMac Power PC G5.  It's operating system is OSX 10.5.8.  The iTunes I have on this computer is iTunes 10.6.3.  When I select "Update", I get a message that iTunes is up to date.
    I can't do "Sync with iTunes over Wi-Fi."  It requires OSX 10.6.8.
    Does anyone out there have any suggestions/alternatives on how I can transfer my music and photo albums to my new phone.
    Right now, purchasing a new computer is not in the plans.
    Thanks.  Peace!

    Your PPC Mac is not compatible with the iPhone 5s. Basically they're from two different OS worlds.

  • Does Icloud sync for bookmarks between Ipad and mac pro with lion work for anyone?

    My wife has an Ipad 2 and Macbook Pro tunning Lion. Bookmarks and docs do not sync on icloud. I see from the discussions many are having this problem. My question is does this work for anyone? Am wasting my time trying to make it work?

    It works now, but it was a bit of a mess for a bit.
    I turned off bookmark syncing on all devices but one, I exported my bookmarks to the desktop and deleted them from safari, thus deleting them from iCloud, I then added them back from the desktop. On my other devices I deleted all my bookmarks, turned bookmark syncing back on and chose to merge.

  • Help, I cannot connect to the internet via airport with either my Imac or I-Pad.  Connecting via ethernet works okay for Imac.  I can connect wirelesssly with my windows laptop.  I have reset my router, created a new network. It was all okay on Monday

    Normally I have my IMac, I-Pad and Windows Laptop all working on my home network via wi-fi. This week I find that I cannot access the inetrnet on my IMac or I-pad via wi-fi but I can connect to the internet via wi-fi with my windows based laptop.
    The airport diagnostics (reds/yellows) indcate that I am connected
    I can access the internet if I plug my IMac into the router via an ethernet cable
    I have restarted the IMac and the I-Pad, rebooted the router and created a new network.  None of these changes has made a difference.  Does anyone have any ideas please?

    You an use your iPhone without connecting it to a computer.
    But the product description for the iPhone clearly states that in order to sync with a Mac you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later. That version of the OSX is usually called Snow Leopard. There are two mo recent versions of OSX. OSX 10.7.x (Lion) and OSX 10.8.x (Mountain Lion).
    If you can upgrade your computer to at least Snow Leopard I suggest you do so.

  • I have an Intel iMac running OSX 10.6.8. I would like to use Final Cut Pro 10.1. I know I need OSX 10.9 for this. Can I run both 10.6.8 and 10.9 on the iMac ? I do not want to convert completely to 10.9 because of my existing software. Thanks for any help

    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?

  • I have an older iMac G5 OSX 10.4.11      What is the latest version of Safari available for this machine?

    I have an older iMac G5  OSX 10.4.11.   I currently have Safari 4.1.3 and I am being told by some of the web sites I use that they no longer support that version of Safari. What is the latest update I can get and how?

    TenFourFox -- It's a port of the latest FireFox to run on older hardware and software.
    "World's most advanced web browser. Finely tuned for the Power PC."
        --  works for me on 10.4.  Supports 10.5
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    alternative download site:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/37761/tenfourfox
    Turn on pipelining.  This will allow Firefox to make simaltaneous requests to the server.  Chrome has pipeling turned on. Some sites could fail to load with pipeling set on. The site will be old. See "Increase pipelining" in:
    http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/firefox-optimization-tips/
    OmniWeb uses the lastest Safari framework.  The open source WebKit. Other browsers like Safari and iCab use the OS version of WebKit.  The OmniWeb downloaded dmg includes it's own copy of the latest WebKit.

  • How can I get an in app purchase that never synced w/ imac onto comp from my old 3g so that i do not have to 'repurchase' for the 4 (2 apps are groove and doodle buddy)?

    how can I get an in app purchase that never synced w/ imac onto comp from my old 3g so that i do not have to 'repurchase' for the 4 (2 apps are groove and doodle buddy)?

    SO, do I delete the app off of both the old 3g phone AND the imac, then reinstall on ONLY the imac, then re sync?  OR, should I delete off computer, repurchase on computer then re-sync with new iphone4?  I realize this is kind of roundabout, but the issue I ran into was too much stuff on my old 8GB 3G, and I was stuck on iOS3 FOREVER (couldn't upgrade to iOS4) soooo, I deleted a whole bunch of piddly apps from the phone ONLY, which then allowed me to update to iOS4 (on the 3G).  Then, I could sync (which I did, but obviously not everything transferred, b/c when I synced the new 32 GB iphone 4, there are  particular apps {doodle buddy and groove, my tap fish...} that are missing the in app purchases, but these are still on the old 8GB 3G).  I am so confused....

  • Inadvertantly deleted Firefox for an iMac running OSX 10.5.8. Can I get an older version?

    Recieved an email to upgrade Firefox to latest version. This I did and then when it went into the Applications folder on my iMac running OSX 10.5.8 (which can't be updated) it "replaced" the older version. Now I haven't got any Firefox at all. Can I download an older version?

    Another solution (especially if this is a PowerPC iMac) is TenFour Fox.

    Sorry I couldn't figure out how to create a link. While this isn't an officially supported Mozilla product it seems to be very stable & keeps up with the updates to the official Firefox fairly well as they come out.
