Upgrading from OSX 10.58 to 10.6 - any problems with previously installed software anyone?

I was wondering if anyone had had any problems with their current software after installing 10.6? (I'm asking because I have a substantial investment in the Adobe Creative Suites and don't want to lose it.) Has anyone had any problems after installing 10.6?  Thank you in advance for any replies.

I would check the Adobe web site to see if it will be compatible.  If there is an issue you may consider a partitioned HDD and run the two OSs each on separate partitions.
Ciao.

  • Upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.5.6 - problem with installer

    This is doubtless an old problem with maybe with a new twist. I am upgrading from OSX 10.4.11 to OSX 10.5.6. I crossed my fingers hoping all would go well but can't even get the machine to restart and to mount the Installer on the desktop. Hence, evolving from a Tiger to Leopard hasn't been a success.
    No matter what I try the machine goes to a grey OS screen with gobblygook on screen and stops. Investigation leads me to understand the gobblygook is a kernel panic, also featuring a Multilanguage screen. I have tried the normal restart procedure with the installer, holding C key down with restart and setting up the CD as the install disk for the restart, all to no avail.
    When I eject the install DVD I can recommence using my machine without any apparent ill-effect.
    An action plan and suggestions would be welcome.

    Leopard requires at least a Mac with an 867MHz or faster PowerPC G4 processor -- see the Minimum System Requirements section of Mac OS X v10.5.6 Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.) or just look on the retail box packaging.
    According to your profile info, your Mac is an "iMac DV," apparently a 400 MHz PowerPC G3 model. Since that isn't even close to meeting the minimum system requirements for Leopard, & the installer disc itself runs a version of Leopard as well as installing it, it is no surprise that you get a kernel panic when trying to startup from the disc.
    IOW, your G3 Mac cannot run any version of OS X beyond Tiger.

  • Upgrading from XI/PI7.0 to 7.1 having problems with message mapping

    Hello,
    We are in the process over the past week of testing our XI/PI functionality after upgrading our 7.0 XI/PI environment to PI7.1; in particular several maps that were accessible in 7.0 will not open or diaplay in 7.1 complaining of a missing node in the mapping structure. Currently working with SAP on a possible fix but wanted to know if anyone else has done a true migration on top of an existing XI/PI7.0 system and experiencing similar issues (note: the maps can execute in the runtime environment but we can't display the maps source within message mapping; this also does not occur for all maps and there is no clear consistant theme to those that can be displayed and those that can't).
    The lattest issue just encountered related to message mapping is that in test mode of a map (that can be displayed) attempting to display the data queue for the mapped elements are blank no data being displayed giving an error noting that the source text of object message mapping: name of the map; has syntax errors, java area import line x, package ibm.com.xi.mapping does not exist/ import ibm.com.xi.mapping UDF:
    Has anyone upgraded from PI7.0 to 7.1 and experienced errors with existing maps that worked ok (ans still work in our QX/PRD systems) in their 7.0 envirinment but encountereing strange errors once upgrated to 7.1?
    Thanks

    Here is the solution we received from SAP to address the issue, there were several mapping related issues we started havng from maps that worked in our 7.0 system prior to the upgrade to PI 7.1. I will try to encorporate the solutions in this response.
    a) From Customer to SAP
    1. We are unable to open some massage mapping, it is throwing
    exception
    2. Number Format functions throw exception.
    But following issue is still unresolved:
    3. When we display message queue, it throws exception

    The patch has been released at the Service Marketplace.
    Please update the scas described in the note 1264871.
    The "FormatNum" function issue has also been taken care in this patch.
    Please go through the Note 1264871 for other behaviour changes after
    upgrade. Let us know if you need any further help.
    Regards,
    B) From Customer to SAP
    04.02.2009 - 00:23:44 CET - Info for SAP
    We discovered another issue with mapping.
    For some of the mappings, we are unable to display mapping queue. When
    we execute, Interface mapping and Massage mapping, it works fine. But
    display queue throws exception. Itu2019s not able to recognize libraries
    used from dependent software component.
    Please find document "Display Mapping Queue Issue" providing example
    problem.

    Thank you for your update. I wanted to check with "CopyValue"
    function's index. It has to take an input integer and the problem that
    found while debugging the opening of your mapping is that the input
    was empty thus causing the exception.
    I was going to suggest the intended use of "CopyValue" function.
    When the input to "copyValue" is a constant, "copyValue" is totally
    not necessary. Thus constant can be directly mapped to other function.
    When the input is a node with values in context, you can treat one of
    values say input[0] to used in mapping by using CopyValue[0].
    But please make sure that input[0] will always produce a value.
    Note 877964 will describe in detail on Copyvalue usage.
    I am marking this Message as complete. Please confirm.

  • Upgrading from OSX 10.4.9 to OSX 10.6.8 on old Mac Book Pro (2nd computer)

    Greetings
    I was wondering what the steps and cautions are to upgrade from OSX 10.4.11 on an old Mac Book Pro (2nd computer for shared use in household for emails, etc.) 2.33 Inel Core 2 Duo to OSX 10.6.8 or highest that I can?

    You will need to get a 10.6 Snow Leopard retail disk which I don't think are still available from Apple.
    Google "buy mac 10.6 snow leopard" to get an idea of current pricing. You'll need updates to10.6.8  in order to upgrade to 10.7 (the early core duo MBPros can not do this) or possibly 10.8 but check the exclusion list to be sure.
    MacTracker can give you all the details.  http://mactracker.ca/

  • How can I upgrade from OSX 10.7 to 10.9 on my 2012 mac mini? (2.3 GHz, 4 GB, 500 GB SATA disk) I don't want OSX Yosemite.

    How can I upgrade from OSX 10.7 to 10.9 on my 2012 mac mini? (2.3 GHz, 4 GB, 500 GB SATA disk) I don't want OSX Yosemite.

    If your Mini shipped with OS X 10.7 Lion, then it was considered a 2011 build model, or before.
    The Mini 2012 model, is considered a Late 2012, & the last one where RAM could be upgraded.
    And it shipped with Mountain Lion 10.8, which is a fairly OK system if one had older software.
    (However mine shipped in Dec 2014, with Mavericks 10.9.0, and was built in January 2014.)
    There were a few different build versions of Late 2012 Mac Mini, the i5 or i7 processor,
    in dual-core or quad-core, and some CTO or built-to-order versions with other specs.
    You can buy Mountain Lion from online Apple Store, & use a download code emailed to you to
    get the Mt. Lion 10.8 from Apple Servers; this would be about it, since Mavericks isn't available.
    So hopefully that is an option you can exercise; in addition the computer may prefer more RAM.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How do I upgrade from OSX 10.7.5 to OSX 10.8.5

    I need to upgrade from OSX 10.7.5 to OSX 10.8.5 in order to use Avid Pro Tools 10 and 11 on the same iMac.
    My iMac is 2.5GHz Core i5. Pro Tools 10 will not work on OSX 10.9 and Pro Tools 11 needs 10.8.5 or 10.9.4. Not certified for Yosemite.

    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. Use the code to redeem a download of Mountain Lion from the App Store. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

    I've encountered 4HDD/11/40000000 SATA(0,0). AFTER SOME RESEARCH IN APPLE COMMUNITY, I LEARNT THAT IT'S A HARDWARE ISSUE. SO I WILL BE TAKING MY MACBOOK PRO TO NEAREST APPLE STORE. MY QUE IS, WILL IT BE FIXED IF I UPGRADE FROM OSX 10.8.5 TO MAVERICKS? What other options do I have? What can be an approximate cost for fixing this problem?

    Of course not. It's a hardware problem, so it can't be fixed by upgrading software. The only option you have got is to take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller.
    That error indicates a problem with the hard drive. What you have to do is to make a backup of your files and take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller, so they can confirm that the problem is the hard drive and not the SATA connector, which could be worse.
    If it's a hard drive issue, it's not expensive (about $100-200, depending on the hard drive). If it's a SATA connector issue, the whole logic board may have to be replaced.
    Note that you can replace the hard drive yourself if you want, but the cost between doing it yourself and taking the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller is similar

  • Can I upgrade from osx tiger v10.4.11 to osx Snow Leopard v10.6 for 29$ ??

    I was wondering if I could upgrade from osx tiger v10.4.11 to osx Snow Leopard v10.6 for 29$ or at a lower cost than full price. I do not need to upgrade that much because 10.4.11 is so great and I hate to leave it. Paying the full price of an operating system does not make sense to me. Can I do it cheaply because I am upgrading?

    No.
    The $29 upgrade is from leopard to Snow Leopard.

    Many thanks,

    You have a bad download. If you are downloading via a dialup this is likely to happen because of the size of the file. If you have a broadband connection, then re-download the file. Also, be sure you download the 10.2.8 Combo Updater: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxupdatecombo10_28.html.

  • Upgraded from osx snow leopard to lion and still no iCloud

    Upgraded from osx snow leopard to lion and still no iCloud settings in System Preferences, why?

    I have the exact same issue, and no Profiles for me under System. My system was upgraded from 10.6 as soon as Lion came out and I've never had the icon.
    I have had iCloud set up by creating an account within Mail, Contacts & Calendars - but in this setup my Mobile Documents folder, my iCloud "Documents and Data", never synchronized with my other devices. That is why I began wondering why I don't have the iCon as I have seen other Macs that came with 10.7 installed factory.
