Updating to Tiger...RAM issue

hi
I only have 128mb of ram in my emac and tiger says you need 256mb.
Stupid question, but if i get tiger regardless of this, will it mess up my emac because i wont have enough RAM?
what would happen if i installed it?
Please reply

hi
I only have 128mb of ram in my emac and tiger says
you need 256mb.
You have a 1st or 2nd generation eMac and never put any extra RAM aboard. You're going to need to increase the RAM. OS X 10.0.x through 10.2.x will run with as little as 80 MB, but won't be happy with less than 192, and really needs 256 to do actual real work. OS X 10.3.x, make that 128, 256, 384. OS X 10.4.x... if you don't have 384 to 512 MB, you're in for a shock. Personally, if I had your eMac I'd add a 512 MB stick to give it 640 MB, or, more likely, just pull the 128 and add two 512s to max the RAM.
Stupid question, but if i get tiger regardless of
this, will it mess up my emac because i wont have
enough RAM?
If you get Tiger to boot in 128 MB RAM it'll be so slow that you'll regret trying. 1st and 2nd generation eMacs didn't have particularly fast hard drives, and Tiger will be hitting the drive for virtual memory and hitting it hard. Worse, as 1st and 2nd generation eMacs didn't have particularly large hard drives either, you will notice the space that Tiger's VM takes up. Back when I had a first generation eMac running 10.2.x, I had first 384 and then 768 MB RAM, and Jaguar's VM, which isn't as voracious as Tiger's VM, ate 2-4 GB of disk space depending on what I was doing and how long the eMac was booted.
what would happen if i installed it?
You'd be sorry. Don't do it. Install more RAM. Crucial sells 256 MB sticks that'll work in 1st or 2nd generation eMacs for $70-80, or 512s for $120-130. There are other vendors who sell RAM for less than Crucial, though Crucial RAM is reliable and really does have a lifetime guarentee. I personally would spring for at least one 512.
The alternative, of course, would be to get a new Mac mini, or, if you can still find one, a 1.42GHz eMac.

  • GarageBand v2&? latency if update to Tiger(and add Ram) to eMac 1.25ghz

    Hi,
    I have used GB on and off and like it alot
    and to preface my post
    and if anyone with a emac with these specs (1.25Ghz 1GB ram and a 80GB HD
    (the USB 2.0 model) I think there is one model after mine with a 1.42 or 1.45Ghz processor
    1) If Someone just added Tiger how did Garage-band work after? Latency issues or
    (I am using Version 2) of GB I do not need the pod casting features of V3 and V4 looks cool but V2 is fine
    2)* and if someone added Tiger and upgraded to 2GB of Ram how did Garage-band work any issues with their eMac or other Mac *(I don't want to crash it)
    I like Garage-band a lot and have posted on Macjams.com (but not for awhile) I have used Audacity
    Abelton Lite (acquired through a gear purchase) and am up to version 6, Reason Adapted for Korg (V3), Tracktion V1 (*not bad) got it free when Mackie gave it away (free full version and license) but never pursued V2 or V3 and I think its on its way out now also, I keep coming back to Garage-band V2 as its user friendly, can use live instruments, virtual instruments with a midi controller and loops as well. my eMac is a 1.25ghz USB 2.0 (version) 1GB of ram and a 80GB hard drive. *I am running Panther 10.3.9 and as any one running Panther I am sure realize the browser issues and even getting access to free-ware or demo's , I read on OWC www.macsales.com that my eMac and the one later with a higher GHz processor can run with 2GB and they referenced a Mac Document as well. I think by adding Tiger (just adding it by itself)? I may run in to latency issues (from what I have heard and read) so I am considering doing two things (updating to Tiger 10.4.1) and adding
    ram (two 1GB sticks) depending on where I buy the Tiger Update (used for eMac or the universal installer (may not be correct term) and buying reliable ram The cost could vary
    new I saw Tiger for around $99.00 and used for emac $3.00 (risk taking yes) and ram
    was $ 29.00 a stick so $58.00 + shipping on ram and anywhere from $3.00 (if lucky to $99.00 + shipping (so could be as low as $61.00 to as high or higher $157.00
    ? though its a 2004 eMac do I want to invest (on the high side $157.00 on a 6 year old eMac or save my dollars and wait and get a Imac (? 1199.00 + applecare) Education pricing) or a laptop (the white molded plastic Mac-book is ? $849.00 pr $899.00
    but would like 4GB of ram and a large HD as I would like to get in to Logic Studio down the road or Logic Studio Express* (just don't buy the education version as You can not update to the full program)*not sure why that is but I read it in several user reviews in the Apple Ed section on Apple Express (You used to get a price cut (prior version of express and full version not sure about the current versions (I guess If You bought the full version at a discount You would ? should ? be o.k. (I would check that for sure though and Logic used to be $1,000 and Express $500.00 so it has come down a huge amount and has great features (imo)
    * crazy enough I was surfing for free-ware and a Russian site I came upon some how?
    was offering down loads of Jam-packs (even the #1 Jam Pack which is no longer sold) and its the only one I ever bought as its cross genre ,
    *The Russian site even had Logic Studio 9 (full version, main stage, all jam packs ? in English or Russian but obviously illegal (I did not touch anything) or attempt any downloads (it had Mac and PC and high dollar programs of each if it really worked or even down loaded (I did not touch anything)
    In the past I did buy Jam Pack Number One (no Genre or type noted) a nice varied program and also Sonic Boom Box but I give it a so so as you need a large 61 or full 88 key midi keyboard (or I am doing something wrong) *I use a M-Audio Radium 49 and about 2/3 of the keys work (or get sound unless You adjust the octave switch) I was interested in the virtual instruments the most too, I have no issues with the Jam Pack Vitual Instruments (guess read the manaul (again)
    and if anyone with a emac with these specs
    1) just added Tiger how did Gargeband work after
    2) and if someone added Tiger and upgraded to 2GB of Ram how did Garageband work
    and any issues with their eMac (I don't want to crash it)

  • RAM ISSUES A215-S7407 - PSAFGU-01V002 SUSPEND MODE ERROR WITH 4GB RAM

    Hi, im having some troubles with my laptop.
    Because it comes only winth 1GB RAM (512MB x 2) i decided to give it an upgrade to 4GB (Max Capcity) according to specifications details on the support site. So i bought two (2) DIMM Modules KINGSTON 2GB 667MHZ, exact model # KVR667D2S5/2G Everything was working fine until i close the lid and it suspend.
    Normally, when i open the lid, it will wake up, and everything will work fine, BUT NOW when it wakes up i have distorted sound and horizontal lines on screen, and sometimes i get a BSOD (BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH) and it restart itself.
    TEST THAT I MADE:
    ONLY 1 DIMM of 2GB  - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP NORMALLY (I tested both Dimms 2GB separately)
    1 DIMM 2GB / 1 DIMM 1GB (TOTAL 3GB) - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP NORMALLY
    2 DIMMs 2GB  (TOTAL 4GB) - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP WITH DISTORTED SOUND AND HORIZONTAL LINES ON DISPLAY.
    It seems like the problem appears only with Max. Capacity (4GB) RAM and only when it suspend CLOSE THE LID (POWER LED CHANGE COLOR BLUE TO ORANGE AND FADES AND COMES).
    With Hibernation, it works fine, the problem is when it suspend.
    It looks that the problem is on the motherboard, maybe a NEW BIOS RELEASE that fix the situation.
    I appreciate if somebody can speak to TOSHIBA SUPPORT DEVELOPER and ask them for an BIOS Update.
    i know that im not the only one with this problem, there is another person that wrote a post "RAM ISSUES" and refers to the same situation, but as i guess, it wasn't solved at all.

    Make sure you install the memory when the light is not flashing, i.e. completly off not sleeping.
    What if you try adjusting - MSCONFIG/Advanced Options/Maximum Memory

  • Garbled Text/Odd font in Safari since updating to Tiger.  Java related?

    I seem to be having a problem with Safari since I updated to Tiger.
    I'm running Safari 2.0.3, and have been encountering problems with garbled text in a strange font when Safari loads certain pages. The text often overlaps making it impossible to read.
    A friend thinks it might be Java related. I've tried clearing the cache and resetting Java, but it hasn't helped.
    Here's a screenshot example: http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/tashamay/Picture2.jpg
    On the Petfinder.com page specifically, if I go directly to their home site everything is fine, but once I try and search the results come up all messed up.
    I also have a problem with it when I try andl log into gmail. "Loading" comes up on the screen in the garbled text font as if it's trying to load an applet, but nothing happens. I eventually get the spinning rainbow of death and have to force quit.
    Any ideas?
    1.8 GHz PowerPC G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Hello tashamay:
    I am not an expert in font issues, but you may have corrupt fonts. Open "font book.' Select all and run resolve duplicates. Then select all and run validate fonts. I also have read that Helvetica fractional fonts have caused some rendering problems.
    I would also clear the Safari cache again.

  • Updated to Tiger and get kernel panics

    Hi,
    I updated my desktop G4 (quicksilver) to Tiger last week, and have suddenly started getting kernel panics. I am not sure what to do about it, other than trying to reinstall Tiger. It didn't happen the first few days of Tiger, so I am not sure it's the OS. Do I need to be worried about my drive? could i lose information with this?
    I do have one bad hard drive inside the machine which crashed in November; I haven't removed it yet. Would removing that bad drive correct the issue? There is a 2nd drive in the machine that is fine and an external firewire drive that is now my main book drive.
    Or could the panic be the result of peripherals, such as sound cards, MIDI gear, printer? or something like software? I use a lot of 3rd party software and have updated quite a few of them in the past week, since updating to Tiger. I did call Apple Care and they suggested removing all external devices and apps...way too much if I don't need to do it.
    Help?
    Thanks
    Kat
    G4 powermac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   also have macbook intel - 10.4.8

    Wow -
    What an incredible answer. I am posting the panic log here, but I remembered that I recently just plugged in my MIDI yamaha clavinova to my sound card, and that's when the panics began. Could be a coincidence, but I unplugged it to see if they stop.
    I will also remove the bad drive. It crashed in November. Disk first aid was unable to repair it and the genius at the apple store told me that something physically broke inside the drive, so there is no salvation for it. I was able to recover most data before it all disappeared, luckily. I just haven't gotten around to removing it and reinstalling the original apple drive.

  • V11 firmware RAM issues...what worked for me

    I think everyone that has upgraded to the v11 firmware has by now noticed the RAM issues in the v11 firmware for the N95 (At least in the European generic firmware).
    The cause of this problem appears to be the 23 or so programs the firmware installs into the phone memory that are all related to the "Search" application on the phone.
    I uninstalled them all and the RAM problems went away.
    To get rid of them go to Tools > Application Manager and uninstall everything you see related to search.
    While I was at it I got rid of Snakes, the System Rush game and the settings and welcome wizards.
    Note that this will remove the Search application from your phone entirely so do so at your own risk.
    An alternative is to move it to your memory card if you wish.
    Useful links: Phone firmware update | Nokia support site

    The problem you are having is a DNS issue.
    Somewhere along the line your DNS address(s) became deleted from the network System Preferences for your 'active' connection (e.g Airport). It probably was set to default to your local (home) router.
    This basically means that safari can not find the web site you attempt to load, so it waits for a very long time.
    You can add in the DNS address(s) by either going to System Preferences / Network and selecting your active network connection / DNS tab. OR you can go to Safari Preferences / Advanced and then click the "advanced" button which will take you to the System preferences panel.
    The DNS server is provided by your ISP in most cases, or you can use the "Open DNS" servers at 208.67.222.222, & 208.67.220.220.

  • Green frames on timeline. RAM issue? GPU issue?

    Hi guys!
    Have anyone experienced that?
    These green frames at timeline. After that my Program Monitor freezes and crashes and soon after Premiere too. There is no wat out. It freezes and doesn't close.
    I am using Premier Pro CC 2014 at Windows 7 Home Premium.
    Another thing: Adobe recommend 8GB of RAM and I have these 8GB and constantly apears RAM low memory, sometimes it crashes just after the message. It can be a low RAM issue? So why Adobe recommend 8GB if it's not enough?
    Maybe GPU? It is a GT540m with all drivers updated and working well on non-Adobe softwares.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for your prompt answer.
    I have just read the article you linked over.
    Had read one of 'em earlier but they're interesting to understand how Mavericks work, I still have some points of interrogation.
    If we consider the figue on how memory compression works, it seems like it is all good but it still doesn't account for why I am using more memory for the same runing processes. I mean, in my case it does not free up memory in the general sense, it litteraly eats memory and THEN frees it up when needed. And why devices use more than twice the memory than others.... this is nuts to me.
    I forget to mention a few things. A friend of mine has the exact same configuration of mbpr. And here is what's crazy, he doesn't seem to use any comparable ram amount than I do, even when I lauch it all out on his mac he never uses more than 5gigs....although we had no internet connection at the time so I assume that might be the reason why ram usage was less important, I really don't know.
    I know activity monitor ram monitoring comprises file cache too but when I run the 'top' command in terminal, it is kinda the same, just a bit lower let's say the 1 to 3 gigs of file cache that is taken into account in activity monitor and not in temrinal.
    Anyways, I guess I'll will keep faith in apple technology as I can't pretend there is any performance drop that I was able to observe.... even with a bad taste in mouth that something is wrong that I can't point my finger at

  • N95 + CoPilot 7 - Possible RAM issue

    Hello,
    I have had my N95 for a couple of weeks and I must admit I love the phone in every way. However I am noticing a small issue when running CoPilot and was wondering if this sounds like a RAM issue.
    Basically when the app is running sometimes it seems to just lockup (usually if rereouting), occasionally the app will close (especially if I get a message through) or even reboot the whole phone.
    I have installed Handy Taskman and I have noticed that when it all goes wrong I have about 100k of free RAM which would suggest that the phone is running low on memory (or very close to it).
    Now unfortunatly I only seem to have 13Mb available at the best of times but I am also on a T-Mobile handset running v12 (before demmand paging and the RAM boost).
    Spoke to T-Mobile about the updates to v20 and v21, they have no release date. Altough I have noticed that the T-Mobile site no longer has the N95+CoPilot option since they have moved to v7, which is puzzling, maybe the lack of the v20 update means that the app does not run that well, although that is just speculation on my part.
    Anyway, I really like the N95 but this memory issue is bugging me. I am considering sending the phone back to T-Mobile and buying a SIM free one so I can update it. Tried local Nokia service center and I already have the latest software for my phone (v12).
    If I do get a phone with v20 (or v21) how much extra RAM will I get, and more importantly how much free memory? If I say CoPilot needs about 14Mb - 15Mb free to run well am I likely to get this with the latest software from Nokia?
    I know there are ways to get the latest updates on my phone but I don't want to risk it, would much rather send this one back and buy one from Nokia.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Lee

    Send it back to T-Mobile and buy directly from Nokia.
    N-95 8GB, Wish Nokia made a 3G World Phone.
    Release a 3G HSPDA 850/900/1800/1900/2100 and Quad Band GSM phone instead!

  • RAM Issues: 4GB installed, 1GB showing After blinking light

    Hey Folks,
    After doing some research online I found that my recent issue, which has come up in the past, was probably a RAM seating issue. The issue where the Fan begins running loudly at hyper speed. I forced a shut down, restarted up and saw no issue. Shortly there after the issue returned. I forced a shut down once more, but this time was met with a blinking power light.
    I remembered from past experience that it was a sign of RAM issues so I unplugged, unseated and reseated all four of the RAM on my cards. Initial start up was met with same response. In fact it wasn't until the 6th or 7th seating and reseating, and RAM position switch that I got the computer to start back up. (The initial successful start up was with one card and what should have been 2GB.)  I checked the About this Mac.. and saw Memory listed as 1GB 667  MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM. The 1GB threw me off because at that moment there should have been 2.
    Shortly there after I backed some things up and tried reseating the other card with the other 2 gigs in it. This time I was able to start up however the System still shows the Memory as 1GB 667 MHz...
    I did notice a single red light on one of the cards and am curious if this is trying to tell me anything, or if this is an indication of a poor installation. Also looking for any advice on why the computer is not seeing all 4 gigs, and if some of them may be out of service.
    Any advice would be much appreciated, and please pardon my lingo because I'm not sure all my wording is correct.
    Thanks

    Failed RAM.
    Stop beating yourself up over insertion technique. These things get mighty hot and they FAIL.
    If they have a reseller's sticker on them, like Otherworld computing or 1-800-Memory or such, call them and ask for lifetime warranty replacements. Otherwise, think hard about how much RAM you really need and go buy some.

  • RAM issues continued

    Hey everyone!
    I was just reading an archived post from around this time last year entitled "Strange RAM issue." I too have had a strange RAM issue and specifically with my G4 PowerBook (15", 1GHz) and OWC. I also wanted to upgrade from 512 to 1GB and could never get the machine to work at 1GB. I am currently in the process of sending back my third consecutive OWC brand RAM to them and they are finally going to send me some TechWorks memory that I'm hoping will work. I just can't believe...every single set of memory they've sent me has tested out "fine" to them either after I sent it back or in the latest case even before they sent it to me. But it never works in my computer and always fails the Rember test.
    Their latest take on it is that the Rember test isn't always reliable and that it's probably a problem with the memory port in the computer in that it won't accept outside (aka non-Apple) memory. What are some people's thoughts on this? Is it possible that the memory port could work just fine with the original computer's RAM and not with new RAM? Is there any truth to Rember not being all that reliable of a test? (If so, why would they have you use it?)
    I'm really getting frustrated with OWC and I was wondering if that's just me or have other people had this same problem?

    APPLE HAS A RECALL for this! READ BELOW AND SAVE SOME MONEY!!!!
    Anyone with these issues needs to see this link. Apple has a recall going for G4 15" AL PBs because one of the two RAM slots die. Mine has been "fixed" twice under this program. There's a number to call to get started. Be forewarned, the person on the end of that phone is not the sharpest tool in the tool box. I had to show him where the recall was on Apple's site and how to interpret it. He had to keep putting me on hold to check with a Powerbook Expert (his title was only Powerbook Specialist). They send you a nice prepaid DHL 24 hr turn around shipping box. First time was great. Second time it came back covered in sticky. greasy fingerprints and the metal around the case screws has been badly scratched. I'm still waiting for Apple to address this but since they found 3rd party RAM in my PB, this is my punishment. FWIW, if you let it go in the broken state too long, bad things could happen. Something from the corrupted RAM wrote to my HD and ended up causing all sorts of issues. A reformat and reinstall was the only cure. Here's the link: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303173
    A few private repair places on the web get over a grand for this repair. The repair is a complete new main logic board exchange. Big bucks.

  • 10g-cvs update/import new files issue

    Hi all,
    when I update a folder in jdev 10g, it doesn't open the new checked in files in the environment
    in the old 9i I used to click on 'update folder' and the tool prompted me 'open the new files in the active project?'
    now if I update a folder, it just update the already opened files,without importing the new ones
    any workaround?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Due to a customer support request, the behavior of prompting to open newly checked out files in the active project was removed when performing CVS update on a folder. If the project file is version controlled and gets updated at the same time, the changes are very difficult to consolidate. For the best CVS experience, we recommend using projects which scan source paths to determine their contents (see Project Properties / Input Paths), and manually refreshing the navigator when new files may have resulted from an update operation.
    This issue is being tracked, and we'll keep it in mind.
    Thanks.
    Paul. JDev Team

  • Creating an Aperture web page from photos the page goes white and nothing displays. Is this a RAM issue?

    I have just purchased an iMac 27" 2.7GHZ running OSX 10.7.4 with 4GB RAM (16 GB has been ordered). I am using Aperture 3.3.2. When I attempt to create a web page from photos the page goes white and nothing displays. Is this a RAM issue?

    I have resolved the issue....turns out that, in my case, running OSX 10.8.1 with Aperture 3.3.2 was what was required! I was running Aperture 3.3.2 with OSX 10.7.x and had this issue.
    I hope this helps someone else as well.

  • Will my Microsoft Office 2004 stay intact if I update to Tiger?

    I am currently operating on OS X 10.2.8 on an iBook. I have Microsoft Office 2004 installed and have already used all remaining disk installs. I would like to update to Tiger and have purchased the software but am concerned that the update will screw up my Microsoft Office software. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for your help. Leslie
    iBook   Mac OS X (10.2.x)  

    Even if it didn't, you could still re-install it. Whether you've used up "all remaining disk installs" makes no difference, as when you reinstall it, you wouldn't be installing an additional copy. You'd be reinstalling the same copy.

  • I updated to Tiger 10.4.11 & cannot mount disk images &other problems.HELP!

    I just updated to Tiger 10.4.11/combo update. I used the stand alone installer (because Software Update since I updated to 10.4.10delta). I repaired permissions before and after the update. Now I can't mount disk images I always get the message "Mount Failed".This occured when downloading and trying to open an existing disk image.I ran fsck, even tried AppleJack all to no avail.I know this problem wasn't there before the update as I downloaded the update and a couple of small utilities and all was well with the world (they all mounted properly). I was doing fine with OSX 10.4.9 but just had to upgrade! Can someone PLEASE HELP ME? I'M grateful for any suggestions and the forums have been good to me in the past.

    Some part of the OS is messed up... I've heard that if you Deltas you must stick with those, if you do Combos you must stick with those, no idea if it's true, as I always use the bigger Combo Updates.
    Most likely the best solution for both of you is an Archive & Install...

  • What version of LR should I choose to run it on a 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM)

    As it says in the title: I want to run LR on my 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM). Adobe support told me that it would not be a problem, yet i'm confronted with a com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1. I have no idea what it is or how to solve it.
    Can you please help me? Thank you.

    You will not be able to use a LR 5 key on an older LR. While an intermediate version of OS X may be easier on your system and may allow a newer version of LR than LR3, if it is not current you still have to get that old version of LR from an alternate channel.
    If you have an easy way to clone your system I would try upgrade you Yosemite and putting LR 5 on it since you have a key. If it doesn't perform to your satisfaction you can always clone back to 10.5 and seek an alternate solution.
    However, was the LR 5 key owned by your previous job along with that other laptop? If so, it violates the license for you to use it.
