Troubles installing from 9.1 to OS X

I have a G4 466MHz. I currently am running OS 9.1 and want to install Tiger OS X. I read in one of the threads that in order to upgrade your OS 9 to OS X you must install 9.2.2 first. Is this correct? I have backed up everything and have wiped out my entire hard drive. When I put the disk in my drive nothing comes up and it eventually spits the cd back out. I am not too tech savvy so any help would be much appreciated!
G4 466MHz Mac OS 9.1.x

There should be plenty of info in these links:
Troubleshooting Mac OS X installation from CD or DVD
Installing Tiger and Other Software
Just out of curiosity, what optical drive do you have? DVD or CD? Make sure you have the correct disk for your type of drive.

Having trouble installing from the disc

I am trying to installAdobe Acrobat XI Pro from the disc. The install process starts but then stops and says, "Insert disc." I already have inserted the disc. No matter how many times I indicate the disc is inserted, the installation stalls.

Could be a faulty CD. But try copying the entire disk to a folder on your desktop, then install from there. If you still get a message to insert a disk, please let us know the full wording.

I am having trouble installing (from disk) CS6 for Mac. I have a new imac with SO 10.8.4.

This is a screen shot of the error screen: I have all other applications closed. I still have CS4 installed for safety. Any ideas?

Have you reset the SMC?
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
While you're at it, resetting the PRAM won't hurt anything and 'might' help is SMC reset didn't work (PRAM does some port control):
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Something else you might try .... you don't say how you're updating to 10.6.8, however, if you're using Software Update, you might try downloading the 10.6.8 combo update, which contains all updates to 10.6. Sometimes, Software Update doesn't work quite right, and installing the combo update fixes that. Download the update from Apple's download site at http://support.apple.com/downloads/ , using Disk Utility repair permissions, apply the combo update, then repair permissions again.

Can I download CS6 (Design & Web) instead of installing from my purchased CD?

I have a MacBook Air and having trouble installing from the CD.

Purchase an external DVD burner. They can be had for about $25. You can also download the trial from the Adobe website and use the serial number that came with the DVD. However, I do not know if you will have access to any of the extra goodies that may be on the DVD.

I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go.

Boot Camp Trouble: 7 Pro x64 SP1 won't install from OEM Disc

Hey Apple Support Community,
So I am trying to install a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 onto my Mac (specs below), but I run into the same error every time. During the "Expanding Windows Files," phase I get an error message:
Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570
The particulars of my setup are as follows:
• Late 2008/Early 2009 Unibody Macbook Pro
• 2.66Ghz C2D
• 8GB RAM (OWC)
• 240 GB SSD replacing the original HDD (OWC, running 10.7.3)
• 1 TB HDD replacing the optical drive (WD, partitioned 150GB for Windows install)
• External USB enclosure w/ Apple Superdrive (OWC)
• Install source is a System Builder DVD of Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64.
I know that pretty much the exact same scenario is detailed in another thread (linked below), but I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't any option I was overlooking before I attempted to source a new installer.
Thanks so much for taking the time to help!

Did you see thread of another person with trouble installing?
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3808299?tstart=0
Things to try:
reseat the RAM - been there, done that with someone. Even though said it was "fine" and worked in OS X. Their RAM was not fully seated. On PCs it is not unheard of to remove some RAM during install, or use to be.
If you have two drives - unplug one (the SSD). Having two GPT is an issue. Sounds like this is NOT an issue though.
External Superdrive: not an issue, seems you were able to boot from DVD.
Otherwise, you need to edit a plist, not supported by Apple otherwise (there is a thread on how to add your MacBook Pro model number)
SP1 has been an issue for some systems - not sure why and horrible seeing it is newer and is the current version, but their system did work with pre-SP1
This is a DVD you bought, not one you burned. We all know by now the issue surrounding burning an ISO with Disk Utility.
I'm grabiing at straws but does any of that give you any ideas?

If there was an error message, what is the exact, complete wording of that

You need to provide some more details of what your problem is so someone

What, specifically do you mean by "having trouble"? What kind of computer are you using, Mac or Windows? Do you have the latest verstion of iTunes installed? What error messages are you seeing? Have you turned off any antivirus software?

Trouble Installing Windows 7 ISO Burned From The Student Deal?

You're not alone. Here are two great articles about the issue, and how to fix it and make yourself a bootable disc:
http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=1779
http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=11194
It has to do with the way the file system is written. Read them both and you should be able to get where you need to be.

Dan,
to my knowledge there is no workaround for using the internal SuperDrive with Boot Camp. I don’t know whether it would be possible to install from your bootable USB into something like VirtualBox — but even if it were possible, the constraints of running a virtualized Windows 7 on a 2008 MacBook Pro might be more painful than replacing the internal SuperDrive.

Trouble installing 2.1.1 for ipod touch generation 1

I am having troubles installing 2.1.1 ipod touch software on a gen. 1 ipod touch. I am using an IMac G5, itunes 8, OS 10.5.4 and the process of updating in itunes has frozen with the blue candy stripe bar spinning as it says "preparing iPod software for restore."
The ipod is black with an white apple and a spinning wheel.
It's been about 5 hours.
What should I do?
Cheers.

Just found some info on apple support.
Updating your iPhone and iPod touch to iPhone software 2.0 or later for the first time
Software updates prior to iPhone software 2.0 updated the device without affecting your settings or media content. Updating your iPhone and iPod touch from iPhone software 1.x to 2.0 or later includes a back up, erase, and then restore of your device prior to installing the new update. iTunes will offer to create a one-time media backup of your device depending on what content is on your device and what content is stored in the iTunes Library you are connected to. You should ensure that you have enough free space on your Mac or PC to accommodate a backup that matches the capacity of your iPhone or iPod touch (4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, or 32 GB) if you proceed with the this backup.
As a result of this comprehensive one-time media backup, this process can take some time. The amount of time, is determined by the amount of data on the iPhone or iPod touch.
7 hours and counting. Stay tune. Maybe by tomorrow morning!

Trouble Installing Windows 8.1 on Yosemite

I am having trouble installing Windows 8.1 using the Bootcamp utility on OS X Yosemite. I downloaded the ISO file for 64 bit 8.1 from Microsoft and put it onto an 8gb USB drive using Bootcamp. My Macbook Pro is an early 2011 (MacBookPro8,2) and is currently running OS X 10.10.1. I know that my MBP doesn't usually support booting from a USB, so I modified the info.plist file using the steps outlined in this thread:
Enable Bootcamp to install from usb for OSX 10.9**WORKS**
This got it to give me the option to boot from the USB when I held the option key on startup.
I have tried the following methods for installing with different errors for each:
1. Installing using Bootcamp created partition
For this, I went through the normal steps in bootcamp and when I got to the disk partitioning stage, I tried to format the drive 0 partition 4 using the format button. After formatting, it wouldn't allow me to continue because of this error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk the selcted disk har an MR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GPT disks." This lead me to this thread: Windows can't be installed on Drive 0 Partition 4.. It mentions a difference between EFI v. preUEFI installations, but I don't know how to do a preUEFI installation. Enlighten me anyone?
2. Creating a "free space" partition with Disk Utility
For this, I created a free space partition in disk utility and used the Window's installer to format the partition. This allows me to get to the very end of installation, but I get the error message: "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration. Installation cannot proceed."
BTW, FileVault is turned off.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi mgallego,
Which step did the error start to occur ?Have you tried to install it again to have a check ?As the information stated, we can restart the machine to have a check.
Here is a link for reference of the requirements of the Windows 8.1 .
System requirements

There may be a hardware issue here, it is also recommended to look for help from the manufacturer for help.

Having trouble installing Photoshop Elements 13. [was: I wonder if somehow I might have went to Creative cloud because something crossed my screen, but I am not used to doing this so]

I could really use Customer Service help. I received Photoshop Elements as a gift for Christmas...I waiting until i got a new laptop so that I could use that as i was having trouble with older computer. However, I am having trouble installing the software...I swear the dvd added the programs, and I saw them in files explorer i think, but then I cannot find or I was not even able to add the serial number to my knowledge, because it was blank...no keystrokes were shown...and i don't see the program anywhere...Could I have down something wrong and it is somewhere in the cloud?

Thank you. That's what I first thought that I didn't need to do anything
but install from the dvd drive. However after the agreement, it asks me to
sign in at adobe. (Sorry, I'm a little tired of looking at this right
now)...I'll try again tomorrow.
There is no one that I see how to start using the program as I must sign
in. However, I have never been able to get the number to your firm. Or get
the correct number... I think I clicked on a learning tutorial or browsed
Adobe's website to learn more, but got caught up in all the details.
I never uninstalled virus protection to run it because I thought that it
would ask. I'll try again tomorrow I am frustrated. Thank you for your
patience. I appreciate it totally. It's really sad cause I really wanted to
create. I have wanted this for a very long time and I can't believe how
difficult this has been. It would be really nice to know what is really
wrong. I must not be seeing something or I've done something.
