Trying to make Universal Tiger setup

I have some old PowerBook G4 Titaniums I'm trying to setup to lan old games on.
I was running Leopard on them, but it won't let me use OpenGL on the 400 and 500Mhz ones, even if I install the Rage128 kexts from Tiger.
I want to switch those ones to Tiger so I can use OpenGL, but, the PowerPC version of Tiger doesn't have IO80211Family.kext, which I need to support my Broadcom 4328 and 4329 Wifi cards.
If I try to copy the IO80211Family.kext from Intel Tiger to PPC, it won't run, claiming it has some sort of superclass error.
So, I made 3 partitions on an external drive:
1. Tiger PPC
2. Tiger Intel
3. Tiger Universal
Installed Tiger PPC and Tiger Intel and updated both 10.4.11, PPC and Intel respectively. Then I imaged PPC onto the Universal partition. Next I imaged the Intel one over that.
Booted it up on my 800Mhz Titanium and it worked! If I run software update, it gets Intel updates now, but it all seems to work, including the Wifi card.
Then I tried it on my 500 and 400s, and it gets stuck at the loginwindow almost everytime. Maybe one boot out of 10 it will load to the desktop and work fine, including the Wifi card, but most of the time I just get a blue or gray screen, and in verbose mode it sometimes has a line about loginwindow.app on a black screen.
I also tested OpenGL on the 500 and it isn't working, even though the Rage128 kext is loaded.
My next step is going to be putting Intel kexts into the PPC Tiger install one by one and seeing if I get anywhere with that, but I thought I would see if anyone had any tips. If I could get OpenGL on the Rage128 on Leopard, then I'd like that the most.

Thanks for the response tanner1294, but it's bugging me for a few reasons.
One, 10.4 Server includes Rage 128 drivers because it's designed to be able to run on many G3's and G4's which came with Rage 128s. I'm willing to bet that if I wanted to, I could run 10.4 PPC (non Universal) server on my Rage128 PowerBooks just fine. I think the issue is an incompatibility with the universal version of one of the PCI bus drivers, and the Rage128 Mobility, although I have yet to test it on a desktop with a Rage128. Again, my Radeon 7500 PowerBook runs both my experimental 10.4 Universal Client setup, and 10.4 Server Universal just fine. It may be worth noting that the Rage128 kexts only have PPC executables in them, while the Radeon ones have both PPC and x86, which is true on Universal Server as well.
Two, Rage128s most certainly do support OpenGL, how else would I be able to play Quake3 on it? It just doesn't work in Leopard because the 10.4 drivers aren't completely compatible with 10.5 (10.5 doesn't have it's own Rage128 drivers), and it doesn't work in any Universal version of 10.4 for basically the same reason. But they run OpenGL just fine in Mac OS 9.2.2 and Mac OS X up to 10.4.11 for PPC. Surprisingly well actually.
Three, Airport cards suck. You acknowledge that they're slow, but they're also way overpriced for what they are, can't connect using some modern encryption types, and often fail. Not only that, but when I copy files using the WPC600N cards, it's noticeably faster than the 100 baseT in the Rage128 'Books (the Radeon ones of course having gigabit).
Anyway, I'm just running 10.4.11 PPC on the 500 and 400 now, and I ordered a WPC54gs. With the WPC54gs you don't have to worry about which version you get like you do with the WPC54g, since they all have broadcom chips. They also have speedboast, and most people sell them for about the same price. It should also work in Mac OS X 10.2.8, which I run on my 233 Wallstreet, which, BTW also runs OpenGL on it's Rage II video.

I rented an HD movie in iTunes by mistake. Can I switch the rental to SD version before starting to watch it? Trying to make room on iPad.

I rented an HD movie in iTunes by mistake. Can I switch the rental to SD version before starting to watch it? Trying to make room on iPad for more rentals to take with me on trip.

You can get the SD or 720p version by:
Open iTunes 11
Click iTunes in menu bar > select Preferences...
Click on the Store tab
Change When downloading High Definition videos, prefer dropdown to 720p > click OK
Click on the iTunes Store button
Click Purchased link
Click Movies tab
You should now see a download icon for the movies you already have 1080p version of.
Click on this download icon to download the 720p version.
This will put a 720p version in the same folder on your hard drive as the 1080p version. If you have iTunes setup to play 1080p when available, it will play the 1080p version. When you connect your iPad 1, it will sync the 720p version.
Don't forget to change your preference back to 1080p so you can continue to get the higher quality version.

Trying to make Tile Transition Effect a rollover effect

Hello all-
I'm a newbie to AS3 and I'm hoping someone can help me. I am trying to make the Tile Transition Effect, from flash-filter.net, into a rollover effect. I originally began working off of the 3D Cube Rollover Transition script and I was able to get the rollover part to work but as soon as the first transition is done I get this error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at net.flashfilter.as3.effects.tileflip::TileFlip3D/processFrame()
at net.flashfilter.as3::PaperBase/onRenderFrame()
I realize that the error itself means that I am trying to call something that is not instantiated yet, but I am unsure where my code is wrong, and I am also unclear on what the 2nd and 3rd lines mean. Here is the code:
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, _onOver);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, _onOut);
var running = false;
var goIn = false;
var goOut = false;
function _onOver(e:MouseEvent){
if(!running){
_createAnimation("in");
running = true;
}else{
goIn = false;
goOut = true;
function _onOut(e:MouseEvent){
if(!running){
_createAnimation("out");
running = true;
}else{
goIn = true;
goOut = false;
function _inAnimationDone(e:Event){
e.target.removeFilter();
img1.visible = false;
if(goIn){
_createAnimation("out");
}else{
running = false;
goOut = false;
function _outAnimationDone(e:Event){
e.target.removeFilter();
img2.visible = false;
if(goOut){
_createAnimation("in");
}else{
running = false;
goIn = false;
function _createAnimation(dir:String){
var myFilter:TileTransitionEffectAS3 = new TileTransitionEffectAS3();
myFilter.mouseEnabled = false;
myFilter.mouseChildren = false;
addChild(myFilter);
if(dir == "in"){
myFilter.init(img1, img2, 10, 20, 40, 40, "Mode7", "l->r");
myFilter.addEventListener(TileTransitionEffectAS3.ANIMATION_DONE, _inAnimationDone);
}else if(dir == "out"){
myFilter.init(img2, img1, 10, 20, 40, 40, "Mode7", "r->l");
myFilter.addEventListener(TileTransitionEffectAS3.ANIMATION_DONE, _outAnimationDone);
Thanks in advance to anyone that might be able to shed some light on the situation!

I'm assuming that you want to do something like the push into all of the stills. There's no real trick, there is just a bunch of work. You have to distribute your layers in 3D space and animate the camera. I'd suggest you start with simple moves with just 3 or 4 layers. Get that right, then start adding layers until you've achieved the complexity you desire.
If I had the artwork and were to try and match the camera move that happens around 7 seconds I'd budget about a half hour. The move from 15 seconds to about 18 seconds is mostly a single setup repeated 3 times. Something that complex would take me about an hour and a half but it could easily take all day, depending on the images needed and whether or not I had to do a bunch of resizing to complete the project.
The other option would be to use the Card Dance plug-in. Card Dance is a complex plug-in that requires some training to use. To learn more type card dance into the search field in AE and look at the training materials. The move on the red layer with all the squares at about 1:47 could be created quite quickly with Card Dance.

Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

Trying to make a book -- can't drag photos

So I just got iLife and I was messing around trying to make a book and I can't drag the pictures from the bar up at the top to the blank space in the book.
I don't know what's going on, or if anyone else is having this problem.
If anyone knows how to fix this I would appreciate it so much!
Thanks in advance for your help!

Adam:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. It's probably a problem with the font iPhoto uses, Helvetica Neue. Open Font Book and make sure it's installed. If it is, deactivate it and then reactivate.
If you don't have it installed use Pacifist to locate the font on your system install disk and install it.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Music trouble while trying to make a slideshow with iPhoto

I am trying to make a slideshow for a family member. I have assorted the pictures in the correct order and that part is done. However, when I went to go and add music to the show, iPhoto only lets me pick one song that I can play continuously throughout the show or just once. I would like to try and put about 5 or 6 songs on to go with the pictures but I can not find any way I can do this. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on what I can do or what software I may need to buy instead. Thank you very much.

I'm trying to make "Stop motion videos" in Final Cut EXPRESS by using 100's of still photos and setting them to music. They are coming out blurry if viewed larger than 4x6 in size

I'm trying to make "Stop motion videos" in Final Cut EXPRESS by using 100's of still photos and setting them to music. They are coming out blurry if viewed larger than 4x6 in size.
I don't understand why this is happening.

Quick follow up, since I was on my phone earlier and am back to a real keyboard.
To access Easy Setup, hit Control Q.
If you click on the blue discosure triangles, a dropdown menu with about a dozen different presets will be displayed. Select the one you want, (Here, I've selected 720P.)
Whatever you select for a preset will not be applied until you make a new sequence. (I don't like to have sequences with different properties in the same project so I prefer to make a new project if I change the Easy Setup.)
Because photo aspect ratios are different than video, I typically put a solid generator of some compatible color on the first track (v1) and put my photos on the track above (v2). Looks better, IMO, than black bars. There are other creative ways to display them. And of course, you could scale them up to fill the frame…but then you probably would have to re-position them.
Good luck.

Is my ISP just trying to make a buck?

Okay, I have an iBook G4 that until yesterday was running Panther 10.3.9. I have DSL through AT&T but my iBook isn't connected directly to the modem but via wireless through Airport. After I installed Leopard 10.5 my network connection was gone. To make a long story short, after 3 phone calls to AT&T, I am now connected to my network, but I hardly have any signal. They had me boost the signal on the router to as high as it could go, but even now as I'm sitting the room right next to where the router sits I only have 2 bars on my Airport logo thingy, and if I go right upstairs to my bedroom I have no signal whatsoever. Call me crazy, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a wireless connection don't you think? According to AT&T, our modem/router is ancient (it's about 3-4 years old) and that we need to buy a new one. Is this a possibility or is AT&T just trying to make some money off of me?

The simple way to test modem/router speed is to remove wireless from the equation. If you get good speed tests while cabled through an ethernet port then the problem is obviously the wireless connection which you say is via an Airport. Nothing an ISP can do here.
If it's a wireless speed problem, then there are still two ends to consider. Try your laptop on someone else's wireless router, even if it's a coffee shop. No problem? Then your wireless router has a problem. If, on the otherhand, you don't see any improvement, then it's the laptop (hardware or drivers or setup).
You are not going to get anywhere by calling an ISP who is always quick to blame everybody else, and the same goes for the hardware vendor who won't accept the blame either. You have to change something in your setup, and see what makes a difference.
If you provide a little more information about your hardware, like the DSL modem name and model, and the Airport model and firmware info it might be a little easier to assist you.
In reading and re-reading your message, I'm not clear if you have a DSL modem connected to an Airport router or a DSL modem/router connected to an Airport router, or a DSL modem/router connected to an Airport that's been setup as a wireless access point. Daisy chaining routers can cause issues also, but it appears that your main problem is the wireless signal strength and you don't know if its the sender or the receiver or even related to Leopard.

Airport Extreme: trying to make WDS using 5GHz n only

I'm trying to make the fastest wireless backbone for my connection to the living room media center PC. I've picked up 2 Airport extreme n units and after some time managed to get them working via WDS (main and remote).
I still get choppy throughput with playing video (dvr-ms format) files from the PC to VLC on the MacPro.
I checked the base stations and they are set to WDS 802.11n only (2.4 GHz) -- is there a way to make it 5 GHz only to maximize speed? It doesn't seem to be an option under WDS.

SteveW25561, Welcome to the discussion area!
Instead of using WDS use "Extend a wireless network".
Open AirPort Utility and select the base station that will connect to the Internet.
Choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open the configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
Next, select the base station that will extend this network, and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open its configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
Enter the base station network and base station password is necessary.
Click Update to update the base station with new network settings.

Where are you located?
Just go and buy an iTunes gift card at any store in your country.
Then follow all the steps you did, but when it asks you for the credit card number, there shoujld be a GIFT CARD option which will let you load your account witht eh funds form the gift card without providing a credit/debit card #.

Yes, many know what this means. You can too. Just type in "error 1004" in the search box at the top of this page. Or, just look to the right. You'll find many links in the "More Like This" box.

Trying to make a DVD with an old/non-existent version of iDVD!

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please could you help me?
I work at a school in the UK, and have recently been able to purchase an external Lacie DVD drive, as the school’s computer (currently an iBook G4 with OSX 10.3.2 and a 1GHZ Power PC Processor – 640 MB Memory and a 40 GB HD) wasn’t shipped with one – however, I have a problem…
Trying to make a DVD that will play in a stand-alone DVD player – I followed the advice in iMovie Help – but was stopped suddenly on finding that I do not have the relevant version of iDVD (which version (if any – I can’t see it anywhere!) was shipped with iMovie 4.0?). Is it possible to download a copy of iDVD 3 or later from anywhere compatible with OSX 10.3.2 and iMovie 4.0?
The iMovie Help has an additional option to ‘export your movie in a format appropriate for DVD authoring’ which has let me burn the movie as a (name).DV file – but this is not compatible with any DVD player I have tried. I noticed a while ago on this forum that someone was talking about Toast but I do not have this, but I do have Roxio Easy Media Creator 7, which was bundled with the burner – but is only compatible with a PC – would I be able to build a project in iMovie, transfer it to a PC, and use REMC7 to do what toast would?
Finally, I was wondering if anyone has any experience of using Avid’s free DV software – and if they would recommend it (and also if I would be able to make DVDs with it?).
Well thanks for reading if you got this far – and I’d appreciate it if you could offer any advice (I know I’ve not been very concise)…
Kevin.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.2)

Thanks for the welcome Karsten! I’ve checked the installer disks – which appear to have all the main pieces of software, but not iDVD. If you or anyone knows where it might be hidden that would be great. Thanks for all the other info too!
Thanks Lennart – I don’t think my computer could support iLife ’05 as it is running Mac OSX 10.3.2 and I’ve just been looking at its system requirements which state it requires 10.3.4 minimum – if you know differently, please let me know. As an alternative I have considered getting iLife ’04, but your comment about iLife ’05 being the first version to support external drives worried me (“iDVD 5 is the first iDVD version that officially supports external burners“ does this mean there is an unofficial option for iLife ‘04? Perhaps a patch similar to the one mentioned by Karsten), does that mean iLife ’04 would not support an external Lacie DVD writer?
What is the earliest version of Toast I’d be able to use (as a money saving option!)?
Thank you both, and apoligies for my amateurish questions…
Kevin.

I am trying to make a main menu for my project but I don't know where IDVD is located?

I am trying to make a main menu but I read some info. and said I have to do it through IDVD and I tried it but can not find IDVD anywhere so I wanted to know if I have to purchase it or something and I also wanted to know how to create a main menu?

depends on how old your Mac is ...
newer machines do not come along with a pre-installed iDVD (.. and iWeb ..) anymore; you have to purchase a boxed version of iLife11.
if somehow iDVD is installed on your Mac, you should find it in your Apps-folder
(or use Spotlight, search for iDVD) ...-
