Two identical XServes, both running 10.6 Snow leopard..

On;y one will update to 10.6.2.
The one stuck at 10.6 doesn't see the 10.6.2 update in SW Updates. I tried downloading the installer manually and it says "This volume does not meet the requirement for this update"...
Thoughts??
Thanks

Saw that on one box.
Never got to the bottom of it, but I did get past it.
Create a backup of your source Mac OS X Server bootable disk on a scratch disk accessible to the server using Disk Utility, then use DU to wipe the target system disk, and then run a (clean) Snow Leopard Server install onto the disk, and then (as one of the last steps offered within the clean Snow Leopard Server installation) migrate your previous Mac OS X Server system settings into the new environment from your external (saved) copy of your original disk.
All this can (does) use the Snow Leopard Server bootable DVD, and the disk backup that you should have around regardless of the particular upgrade.

I have just transferred my entire application file from an Imac to an identical Imac, both running OS 10.9.5. Everything works fine, excepting that when I attempt to open Photoshop 6, I am prompted for the serial number. I enter the serial number provided by Adobe, which I have confirmed with my "previous purchase" records kept by Adobe. It is demanding a "qualifying product", all of which is contained in the complete files I transferred. Why can't Adobe recognise my valid serial number for Photoshop 6?

Say what?
Please use the proper installer.
Are you really talking about Photoshop 6 or about Photoshop CS6?

Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

Hi Carolyn, thanks for your quick reply. First thing I did before posting my question was to check the system requirements for Creative Suite, both on Apple and Adobe's websites. But I am however confused about the difference between "Multicore Intel processor" vs "Core 2 Duo", and keep hearing stories about CS5 not working properly.

What are the minimum hardware requirements to install both MAC OS X Snow Leopard and Windows on a Mac

Hi,
I want to install both MAC OS X Snow Leopard and WINDOWS on a same PC. Is it possible..then mention the minimum Hardware support to install both Operating Systems on a PC. I am waiting for relevant reply from Apple Support Team.
Thank You.

I am waiting for relevant reply from Apple Support Team.
Then you'll be waiting a long time. This is a user to user support site hosted by Apple. The Apple Support Team doesn't respond to posts here.
For Snow Leopard, you need an Apple computer with an Intel processor of any flavor. Here are the specs from the Apple Store:
System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
You'd have to contact Microsoft to find out what specs its OS requires, but I imagine the above would cover it.
Also note that Snow Leopard is only licensed to run on Apple branded equipment.

CAn I run Lion and snow leopard on the same computer with different sign-ins?

Alternatively, partition your internal HD and dual-boot it. Do note that you have to reboot to switch back and forth. You can't do it by logging out and back in.

Is it possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?

Hey All,
Anyone know if it is possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?
I am using SPSS 16 and it is not compatible with snow leopard. A temporary fix right now if I partitioned my hard drive and installed Leopard on some extra space to run SPSS. This is kind of annoying because I only need Leopard to use SPSS. I would rather emulate it so I can listen to iTunes and check my email in SL.
What about Panther? I think I even have a copy of Panther to install in Parallels?
I read somewhere that the EULA restricts OS X from being emulated, which seems odd for Mac users who need to test or use old software. I understand though about emulating OS X on windows machine though. I guess they need to blow off the whole foot than just cut off one toe.
Thanks for the thoughts!

From what I can tell, doing this would be, at best, of dubious legality.
Even so, the popular opinion seems to be that it would take some degree of hacking to pull off a virtual machine running OS X. I think that unless you are willing and able to undertake such a task, your best bet is to stick with a partition running an old version or wait for SPSS to be updated for Snow Leopard.
Although...... I have Parallels 4 (current version is 5) and it has an option, when setting up a new Virtual Machine, to install Mac OS X server (see image linked below). Perhaps if you could get a copy of the server edition of the OS you would have more success?

Can I run Logic in Snow Leopard?

Can I run Logic in Snow Leopard?

LP9 runs fine under 10.6.8....
In fact using Logic Pro 9.1.5 and OS X 10.6.8 turned out for me and many others it seems.. to be one of the most stable combinations of Logic and OS X of all time

CS5 Design Premium: Will it run faster in Snow Leopard than Lepoard?

I was wondering If CS5 PS will run more quickly in Snow Leopard than it does in Leopards? Is the difference noticeable?

Yes, it can run faster in Snow Leopard, especially in 64 bit.

2 Intel Xserves, both running fast and both unable to connect to Server Mon

Hey guys -
Since this is happening to two identical machines, I'm wondering if I'm just not doing something right.
I have two Xserves, both essentially functioning as metadata controllers for an Xsan volume. They don't do anything else but they both run fullblast at all times.
When I initially set them up, I disabled LOM on them. However, I can't connect to either of them using the Server Monitor. This is being done locally through a belkin KVM switch, so it's nothing to do with firewall issues. They're both on two networks, a private one (for the Xsan metadata) and a public one that operates through proxy servers. Currently, neither of them can physically connect to the internet (owing to an error in the proxy settings I'm guessing), both other machines in the local network and see them and connect to them.
They're both the same configuration, with 2GB of RAM, and operating at 10.4.8. They have dual power supplies and are running into two separate UPSs for power redundancy.
I was wondering if updating to 10.4.10 would have an effect on them, or if there was a procedure to reset the PMU (or SMU or SMC or whatever they call it these days) on them.
I've been searching these forums for similar issues, but most of them seem to be related to intel xserves which actually HAD LOM turned on, and these guys do not.
If it isn't any of these issues, how would I go about thermally recalibrating both of them?

well, I done fixed it.
After I got LOM up and running (127.0.0.1 was the way to go), I was able to see that the CPU intake fans were all blowing at a strong 16K rpm. Not a good sign, even though there were no warning lights going off and everything was reported as green and normal. Since this SAN lived in a hushrack (two servers and two RAIDs all told), I first tried to isolate airflow out of the equation by removing the back enclosure and opening the front door. Even after the heat dissipated, it ran at top speed. I ran all software updates possible, installed the OS onto an empty hard drive, and still got the same thing. I yanked one of the systems out of the rack it was in and swapped the fibre card from slot 1 to slot 2. I started it back up before returning it to the rack and, goodness me, it topped off between 5K-6K. I was so happy with myself that I tossed it back into the rack, patched it all back in, and fired it up. Boom. After about a minute of being on, it rocketed upwards straight to 16K rpm.
So now it was a matter of playing the isolation game. I pulled fibre cables, I tested the power cables in both the UPS and straight into the wall, I pulled the KVM switch out and just stood by listening for any changes.
It turned out to be two bad ethernet cables, of all things. I'd plug the cable in and the fans would start their best jet engine impression. The primary metadata controller had a bad metadata cable, and the open directory master had a bad public ethernet cable.

Two Pearl 8120s. both running os 4.5 - One recieves HTML emails, the other does not

I have two 8120s on Tmobile, both running os 4.5.0.44. One receives HTML perfectly, but not on my tmo.blackberry.net account, only from my POP mail account. The other one will not receive email on either account (TMO or POP).
I have tried sending it service books many times. The email options settings are set to "Enable HTML Email" for all accounts.
Does anyone have any advice?
Jim

Two-Sided printouts doesn't work in Snow Leopard

Ever since I updated to Snow Leopard 10.6 I'm now unable to print two-sided prints on both a Xerox Phaser 7760GX and a Ricoh Aficio MP C4500 with Postscript interface installed. All my co-workers has the same problem and they are also running OS X 10.6.7
When I try to print and select the two-sided option, the printouts are separated on to two pages instead of one page.
What's up Apple?

Have you asked the printer manufacturers that question? Apple doesn't write their drivers for them, it just bundles the drivers in the OS.
I don't have a duplexing printer, so I can't test it.
Also, Apple isn't here to ask questions of. Just us users.

Unable to bind MacBook Pro (running 10.6 - Snow Leopard ) to Windows Server 2003 domain

Hi there, I've been working on this problem for a few hours now (and a few hours last Thursday) and don't feel I'm getting anywhere, so I'm reaching out for help....
My organisation has just purchased a new MacBook Pro, running Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6) and as a Technical Support Engineer I have been asked to configure it for an end user.
I am currently trying to join it to our corporate domain, which is a Windows Server 2003 domain operating at the Windows Server 2003 Native domain functional level.
The MacBook is configured to use DHCP, and has been assigned valid IP address, DNS servers etc by the DHCP server. It can resolve all names on our network, including the names of our domain controllers. When I use nslookup to resolve the name of the domain "my_domain.local" it returns a list of DC's on the domain, which would indicate to me that name resolution is working perfectly. It is using our primary DNS server, 'Ponus' to resolve these names - Ponus is also the Domain Controller in this site.
To attempt to join the MacBook to the domain I have created a computer account for it on the domain, in the Computers container. I have gone into System/Library/Core Services and run the Directory Utility.
In the directory Utility I have ticked Active Directory and clicked on it to edit. The 'Forest' field is greyed out and set to 'Automatic', in the 'Domain' field I have entered my_domain.local, which is the FQDN of my domain. I click Bind and when prompted enter my Domain Admin username and password (in the 'Create Computer Account in:' field it displays correctly as CN=Computers,DC=my_domain,DC=local.)
When I click OK I get the message: Invalid domain. An invalid Domain and Forest combination was specified. You should enter a fully qualified DNS name for the domain and forest (e.g., ads.company.com).
I have attempted writing the domain as my_domain.local, my_domain.local., MY_DOMAIN.LOCAL and MY_DOMAIN.LOCAL. but I get the same error each time. I have checked and rechecked DNS is resolving OK, and cannot see why it cannot find the Domain and Forest from the FQDN that I am entering. Even so I tried creating records in the hosts file on the MacBook to point to the main Domain Controller at this site (Ponus) but this didn't change anything.
I have seen a few people report the same issue online but the responses tend to fizzle out before anyone gets to the bottom of it. I have seen some indication that people with an understore (_) in their domain name, or with a .local domain name may experience issues with joining Mac hosts, however these details are very vague and if true there must be a workaround.
If anyone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it, I'm running out of time to complete this work and have run out of things to try.
I have an inkling that this is due to the Mac for some reason not reading the SRV records for the DCs and LDAP in DNS, or to do with the Mac looking only at one SRV record (ie. there is one for a new DC that we haven't deployed yet), not being able to reach this and giving up, but I'm clutching at straws really with my limited knowledge of the Macs process for joining the domain.
Many many thanks,

Hi there,
A simple suggestion , please make sure both MacBook Pro clock and the server clock are the same meaning the hour/Min/ sec both should match. A least difference of 3 seconds is fine.
I had faced this problem in many place and only solution was to match the time and it will bind immediatly.

Can I partion my drive on macbook pro 10.5.8 to add snow leopard and not affect my leopard? I'd like to run apps on snow leopard which cannot be run on leopard.

I'd like to add snow leopard to my macbook pro which runs leopard 10.5.8 in order to run apps. I do not want to mess with my original system and risk losing data. Is that possible by just going to utilities and partioniong my drive?

15 is probably enough. And if you kept your home dir in a separate volume then you could use your same home dir on both leopard and snow leopard. This is one of the reasons I recommend keeping the home dir on a separate volume. Very convenient for switching OS's or needing to use a (backup) copy of the current OS.

Running Lion and Snow Leopard on the same MacBook Pro

So here's the thing .....apparently Lion won't run Photoshop and Illustrator CS2 (which I'm quite happy with and not about to shell out silly amounts of money to Adobe for even CS3) and apparently there may be (and I stress may be) problems with Word 2008 (likewise money to Microsoft for Word 2011).
I think, and probably won't know till I've installed it, that I'd like to try Lion on my Macbook Pro but keep Snow Leopard as a separate OS to run Photoshop, Illustrator and if necessary Word until I can afford to pay Adobe (& possibly Microsoft though I can't really see what improvements they can make to Word 2008) the large amounts of money they seem to think they deserve for an upgrade.
Does anybody out there know if it is possible to run both Lion and Snow Leopard on the same machine and if it is how do I do it?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I am still running OS X snow leopard can my mac book handle the jump to yosemite

I have not updated the OS X because I was comfortable with the set up and honestly too lazy to figure out the quirks of a new system.I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8   Now my safari browser is completely out of date and I can't view any web pages. Can my mac book pro 2 GHz Intel Core i7 with 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 handle the upgrade to OS X yosemite? Or will this just completely slow down the computer?

Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
