Trying to Install Tiger iMovie HD on Snow Leopard But Can't
I really like iMovie HD better than iMovie 09. I used to have a 2006 MBP with Tiger and iMovie HD, but the laptop went sour and Apple replaced it with a mid-2009 MBP with Leopard. I really don't like this iMovie and it seems to render video differently. I still have my 2006 MBP install discs and I tried to install iMovie HD on my 2009 MBP but it won't let me because of the new hardware.
Is there any way that I can get my old iMovie HD on my new MBP. I mean I have the original install discs and yet still can't run them on my new Mac. Not cool.
I tried extracting from the install discs and I couldn't find iMovie. Disc 1 had the basic OS apps like iCal, Mail, etc. Disc 2 doesn't show anything. All Disc 2 has is a file that says use Disc 1 to install the OS. Am I maybe missing a disc?
By the way, how safe are those online download sites? I'm worried about downloading the program and getting some harmful software. Especially since I don't have virus protection on my Mac.

Hi
I have a new 21 inch imac oct 2011 version. I installed bootcamp and windows xp on my machine and i also installed parallels 6.
Paralleles works great and i can open any program with it. But bootcamp also works EXCEPT it refuses to give me access to the internet. I installed the bootcamp drivers from my snow leopard disk, it did not make a difference. All the drivers installed but still no internet. I then installed the bootcamp drivers from the gray mac osx disk (#1) but it stopped installing with an error number ( 2753) and it said that the package was damaged.
I have tried everything; i opened each disk and trieed installing the files separately. Nothing.
What i see missing in my devices screen in XP is the network adapter.
I have a router (dlink-dr615) and it is connected by ethernet to my imac. I wonder if THIS might have anything to do with the problem. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thank youI'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck. -

Hi,
How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

<Edited By Host>Kappy is correct. Apple later in 2006 changed the processors to Core2Duo and that has a 2 in the middle of the name. It also then changed the Machine ID to MacBook 2,1.
Before upgrading to Lion, you should also read this tip carefully:

I'm trying to upgrade from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard but my macbook keeps ejecting the disc. It started to install the first time and said it needed to restart to finish, restarted but ejected the disc. It ejects every time now. I've also installed the 10.5.8 combo update but that didn't help it. I've tried restarting the macbook with the disc in, holding c, all that. Why won't this work?!
Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

I am trying to re install snow leopard but i keep getting an error saying unable to reinstall
I am trying to revert back from Lion to Snow Leopard as i am not that happy with Lion yet.
Everytime i place the Snow Leopard DVD in & restart & press "C" after around 5 mins i get a screen propt saying unable to reinstall apple operating system
The disc play fine normally
N66Do you have another drive you can install SL on? If so, you can try installing SL on a 2nd drive, boot from that drive and use Migration Assistant to move your Apps and Data back from your Lion disk. I have not tried this, but see no reason why it should not work.

Hello, I have try to install Snow Leopard but when I checking the section"about this computer" is show me the same soft OS x 10.5.8. Is it that normal or it must appear a different soft there. Please also advice what to do, because I have tried twice.

You need to buy 10.6.x DVD or flash drive (w/ Lion or Mountain Lion).
Check Apple Store or call. -

Myriad of issues since trying to install Tiger with a defective disc.
Some time ago I tried to install Tiger and got the messge the disc was damaged. I went back to Apple and they tried to install their copy and in the process my iPhoto got all fouled up. They recovered the library (somewhat) and we decided not to install Tiger until I backed up my machine. Some time later I brought my external drive in and we backed up the user and then tried to rebuild the iPhoto library. By the time I had to leave, my iPhoto was still showing white thumbnails on 30% of my library. I tried to rebuild it yesterday and like the previous time, iPhoto quite unexpectedly. See my posted question at iPhoto4 - Tried rebuilding iPhoto library twice, both time iPhoto "unexpectedly quit"
Just got back from the Apple store and their solution to the iPhoto issue agreed with Brie Fly's post of:
Move the two recent rebuild attempts from Pictures to the trash. Temporarily move your original iPhoto Library folder to the desktop. Start iPhoto and choose "Create New..." from the dialog. Quit iPhoto.
Drag the iPhoto Library folder from the desktop, and drop it inside the newly created iPhoto Library folder in Pictures (put it inside; don't replace).
Now start iPhoto again while holding the shift+option keys to try another rebuild.
The Genius folks at the Apple store suggested that I also Archive and Install to see if I have a corrupt user file. I decided to back up my user first and this is where I got....
Dragged user to desktop icon of external drive, while it was "preparing to copy" it stopped with the message:
"One or more items have special permissions and cannot be copied. Do you want to skip them?" I'd expect one of the choices to be "Yes" but curiously the two choices were "Stop" and "Replace". (symantics!) I chose "Replace" and almost immediately I got the message:
"The operation cannot be completed because the item "Installer" is locked." I then click the only button offered, "Ok was the only choice to click upon doing so the operation is ceased.
I didn't know the Installer could be locked, how it became that way nor how to unlock it!Wow, has this stumped the experts?

Having horrendous problems with iMovie 11 on Snow Leopard (10.6.8) -- very slow indeed, and nothing works as it should. Does it work properly with Snow Leopard? Or is it just meant for Lion? I have an iMac OSX intel version.
I tried to reinstall iMovie 09 from the install disk -- but it refuses to install -- what to do?
Thanks all.It should work fine. If reinstalling iMovie does not work, you may need to reinstall OSX.

How can I format my intell based imac without the original Tiger discs? I have a user account on it that I dont want. I have upgraded to Snow Leopard but I want to to start affresh. Thank you. I have tried loading the Snow Leopard disc whilst holding down th C key but it goes straight into install mode. I am new to Macs and I have inherited this machine.
Hello, many options...
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the Erase tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Highlight the drive, select Partition Tab, then Format type... MacOS Extended Journalled, select the Security Options button, choose Zero Out Data, Erase... after completion do a new install.
Or...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
In the same pref pane highlight your old account, click the little minus icon, then use Disk Utility to Secure Erase Free Space. -
Hello:
I have an iMac that I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. I bought iMovie '11 after upgrading to Mountain Lion. I also have a MacBook Pro but don't want to upgrade to Mountian Lion 'cause I don't want to loose Front Row. So I tried to buy and install iMovie from the App Store on the MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard) but when I try to buy it it says that I can't buy it or run on on Snow Leopard it must be on Mountain Lion? Is there any way to get the down version of iMovie '11 for Snow Leopard from the App Store? I already paid for this version online.
Thanks,
mn3My guess is that you are out of luck. The latest requirements for iMovie '11, as listed on the App Store, are "OS X 10.7.4 or later". In other words, iMovie '11 (in it's latest iteration) will work only on Lion or Mountain Lion (or later).
My wife's iMac is on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.8 and is running iMovie '11 version 9.0.4. Checking for updates returns the message that iMovie is up to date. So it appears that the last version to run on Snow Leopard is 9.0.4 - hence why you can't download 9.0.8 to Snow Leopard from the App Store. Perhaps you can purchase a boxed version of iLife '11 somewhere (possibly eBay) that has an earlier version of iMovie '11.

Upgrading from Tiger 10.4 to Snow Leopard
Alright, so i reformatted and erased my hard drive and tried installing Snow Leopard but it says "this computer doesn't have enough RAM"...
AFTER i cleaned it out. and now it won't let me eject the disc or get out of the installation screen..
it says to restore my system with time machine.. but i don't have time machine or any backups.
but under my hard drive settings it says:
space Available: 79.45 GB
Used: 229.7 MB
i don't know what to do..You should also read the section in the right column titled - *Upgrading from Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger.*
Don't confuse the technical or licensing requirements with Apple's buying suggestion that Tiger users should purchase the Box Set. The Snow Leopard DVD & the license to use it are the same whether they come as part of the Box Set or as the OS-only retail product. Neither one requires anything special of Tiger users aside from the general & feature-specific technical requirements.
Specifically, make sure the Black 2006 MacBook has a minimum of 1 GB of installed memory since most of the "Early 2006" ones came with only 512 MB (½ GB) installed.
