Tiger 10.4 "retail" or "installer" for upgrade?

Have a shiny new iMac with Tiger, want to add Tiger to Powerbook G4 (10.3.9). Do I need to buy a full, new, retail version of Tiger (waiting a while before tackling Leopard), or can I use an installer CD/DVD say that I buy off of ebay? Or even a "used" retail?
I ask because there are of course lots of disks on ebay and other sites, not sure if they'd be of any help to me or no since, according to the licensing agreements, those disks are all for only one machine.?? Am sure I am overthinking this, making it too hard, just need to know.
Considering a target disk mode install of Tiger (firewire from iMac to PB using those installer disks), but want alternatives. Thanks in advance.

Forget to post, I understand I need an OS build for an older machine, not an Intel-based computer. Just want to make sure I get the proper version of Tiger to successfully update the Powerbook. Thanks.

  • ITunes 11.1.4 for windows has installation or upgrade problems

    anyone knows why iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows cannot be upgraded and it always hit problem with the message "MobileDevice Services cannot be started....." when the upgrade or installation of iTunes 11.1.4 aborted half way with the message.  I tried downloading manually the iTunes 11.1.4 for windoes package from Apple website and tried performing the installation or upgrade manually form my Windows computer.  But it failed everytime with the same error message "MobileDevice Services cannot be started...."  I tried on two different Windows computers (one laptop on Windows Vista and the one Desktop on Windows 7) and they all failed also.   Please help if anyone knows what is wrong.  Thanks.
    BTW, after the failed upgrade or installation of iTunes 11.1.4 for windows, I cannot use iTunes anymore with the following error message "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem."  But reinstalling iTunes 11.1.4 always failed.  So I am in a catch-22 situation.  no way to proceed with iTunes on my Windows computers.

  • Upgrade installer for 10.3.5

    Hi,
    We have a weblogic 10.3.2 installed with FMW 11.1.1.2(PS1). I am trying to upgrade it to weblogic 10.3.5 and FMW 11.1.1.5(PS4).
    I read that to upgrade the existing weblogic 10.3.2 to 10.3.5 we need to use a separate upgrade installer.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14142/postins.htm#CJAEFCEE
    But I could not find any upgrade package for it in Oracle support. Where can I find one ?
    Thanks
    -Siva

    Procedure for obtaining update installers is documented here:
    https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=HOWTO&id=1074946.1
    But this process does not produce an upgrade installer for 10.3.5 or 10.3.6.
    I have previously downloaded the wls1036_upgrade_generic.jar but can't locate it now on the oracle website.
    I am now looking to download the 10.3.6 upgrade installer and am also interested in where the 10.3.5 upgrade installer is located.

  • Need installer for Photoshop Album v3.2 to upgrade install of v2.0

    I'm supporting an old couple's PC with a valid licensed Photoshop Album 2.0 install. Moving to a different photo management system is not a possibility for many reasons. However, v2.0 has serious limitations with email support. I'd like to get them updated to the latest version Adobe produced for Photoshop Album which I believe is v3.2.  How do I get the installer for this obsolete product?

  • Tiger OS X10.4.2 Installation Problem, nothing on posts have worked

    I am using an iBook G4, with a 1.33GHz PowerPC G4 processor, with 256 MB memory. I am currently running Panther OS X 10.3.9 and looking to install Tiger 10.4.2. When I restart the computer and hold c with the Tiger disc in, I continually get the "This cannot be installed on this computer" message. I have tried using the disk utility to verify the disc permissions of the installation disc and I recieve the package error message. After this, I checked to see if my BaseSystem.pkg was in my Receipts folder, and it was. I did not get an option to verify the disk as this button was unclickable, I could only click verify disc permissions. I have also verified the disc permissions and repaired disc on my hard drive. There is not firmware updates needed for my computer.
    I have checked all over this forum and have tried everything I have seen suggested. Thanks for any further suggestions!
    iBook   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    What color is the Tiger installer disk? If it is grey, does the label say is it for your iBook or for some other Mac model? Only a black, retail Tiger disk or a grey one for your specific model will reliably install Tiger on your iBook.
    To repair your hard drive, or to verify it in 10.3.x, you must start up from another drive that has Disk Utility on it -- you cannot repair the drive you start up from.
    If your Tiger disk qualifies as above, you can restart from it by holding down the "c" key during restart, then select Disk Utility from the "Utilities" menu of the Installer (do not run the installer). This should allow you to repair the hard drive.

  • After Installing - Cannot Complete Installs for Programs

    I installed Snow Leopard and it seemed to be running fine after I granted myself Admin access again.
    However, I tried running the installs for multiple programs including a security update to the OS, iLife and iWork - the installs get to "Preparing Installation" and freeze.
    I have tried leaving some of these installs up for up to 48 hours and there is no progress.
    Yahoo Messenger also freezes on sign in with a similar problem.
    How do I fix this so that I may use Yahoo Messenger and run installs again?

    I suggest you might try this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X 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 Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If this doesn't help any, then reinstall SL.
    To upgrade iLife and iWork you will have to purchase the '09 versions. There is no free upgrade path from '08 versions.

  • Error in Plugin Installation For MS Office 2013 on Windows 8 and 8.1

    Hello,
    We have developed an installer for MS Word and MS Excel plugins. So far it has been working fine for MS Office 2003, 2007 etc. but since I have upgraded to a Windows 8.1 machine with MS Office 2013 installed, the plugin installation is giving error.
    The installation fails and an error dialog appears with Error Code Type: Error, Error:1, Owner:30a.
     The installer works well for MS Office 2010 on Windows 8/ 8.1 machine or MS Office 2010 on Windows 7 machine.

    HiDinesh,
    Is there any other error message when installation fails?
    According to this error message “Error Code Type: Error, Error:1, Owner:30a.”
    This is problem conclusion provided by IBM:

  • BO XI 3.1 installation and Upgrade activity Steps

    Hi Experts,
    Right now we are using BO XI R2 Version, Planning to uninstall XI R2 and do a fresh installation of BO XI 3.1 with SP3.
    Do I need to install the Java latest version for XI 3.1? Right now we have the following setting,
             j2re1.4.2_04
             j2re1.4.2_16
             jre1.5.0_14
    Since the up gradation of Reports, user, groups, universe events etc are from XI R2 version to XI 3.1.So Is it enough to    
    install BO XI 3.1 with SP 3, or do I have to go for FixPack inorder to avoid problem after this upgrade activity.
    Could you please tell me about the BOXI R2 to XI 3.1 installation and Upgrade activity Steps.
    Regards,
    Sridharan

    Hi,
    you dont need a special JRE version on the Server. With the installation of BO a own JRE will be installed for BOE. Only for developing WebI reports the developer need a 1.6.x JRE later on.
    There is already FixPack 3.1 out but installing "only" SP3 should be sufficient.
    I would recommend you check the upgrade guide from Rel.2 to XI 3.1:

  • Is there a central note available yet for Upgrading to NW 7 EHP 5?

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to find out if there is a central note available for upgrading to NW 7 EHP5.
    I have note 1299009 which is the central note for upgrading to NW 7 EHP 2 but I'm trying to find one for EHP 5 specifically (if it exists at all).
    The reason I'm keen to find this is because note 1299009 refers to downloading various software patches and fixes before starting your upgrade and it tells you the versons of the files you need, but it is specific to EHP2 and its not at all obvious which files to use if you are going to EHP 5 (or does it even matter?).
    For example, you need to download the latest patch for SAPup. The oss note mentione for EHP 2 to use the 7.02 version.  Logically it would follow that there might be a 7.05 one for EHP5? No there isn't, you just get 7.00, 7.01, 7.02, 7.10, 7.11 and 7.30 - how do you know which to use for EHP 5? (or is it just 7.02 still?).  The current version of SAPup that comes on the DVD is 7.00/3.  Hopefully you can see why I am confused.
    The same is true for the correction needed for the upgrade package. The suggested one in the note refers to FIX_ NW02.UPG. On OSS the availble ones are the same as above (nothing with a 5!).
    Any help appreciated.
    Regards
    Claire
    Edited by: Claire  Richards on Dec 15, 2011 12:23 PM

    Dear Claire,
    Let me clarify your doubts here.
    There is no EHP5 for NW 7.0 yet. Its EHP5 for ECC 6.0 which brings in NW 7.00 EHP2 along. 
    ECC 6.0 uses NW 7.0 architecture and also note that NetWeaver 7.0 is also available as a independent product.
    Now if you are having NW 7.0 as your product version then you need to apply EHP2 of NW on it to be on 702 release.
    But if you are having ECC 6.0 as your product version then you need to apply EHP5 of ECC on it to be on 702 release which would also make 605 release for all other application components.
    For ECC 6.0 EHP5 kindly refer the following SAP Notes:
    1302772 - Central Note - SAP Enhancement Package Installer 7.00
    1298878 - Installation of SAP Enhancement Package 5 on SAP ERP 6.0
    I hope i could clarify your doubts.
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    Any help?
    Thank you.

    Hello Srini,
    Thank you for your reply. I ran the installer located in /u01/oracle/oui/install and pressed the 'About Oracle Universal Installer' and the version of the oui was 9.2.0.4
    I then clicked on the Installed products, it took like for ever to execute, so I ran the sqlplus.
    When I connencted to the sqlplus, I saw that the database is still 9.2.0.1
    So I continued to installation procedure marked on "Oracle9i Database Patch Set Notes Release 9.2.0.4" document.
    after installing the new oui, I should execute the $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh in a root session. I did and I suppose to see the installer window and go through with the wizard but the cursor just returns.
    Is there any thing wrong with my installation procedure, although I followed the steps mentioned in the document step by step.
    kinldy advice.

    Thanks for your quick answer.
    In the SAINT i check the status:

    And checking the OCS Package Directory it has green.
    So, it does not matter if i apply installation or upgrade of the Add-Ons?
