Video gamers-Before I update to 10.5.5, any problem with this version

Hi, I would like to know BEFORE I attempt to update to lep 10.5.5 are the graphics card issues resolved. I am running 10.5.2, This is seems to be the only update enabling 256 color that works with graphic intense video applications or games. According to the details of this update (10.5.5) it does say it "includes graphic enhancements" in the update. What the heck does that mean? Is that saying if I have a GeForce 8600 GT 128MB card that I will be able to run video games and not crash, lock-up, stutter or have unpleasant problems like the other updates 10.5.1,- 5.3,- 5.4? If there are other issues that have popped up I would like to know about those as well.
Thanks in Advance

To find out if your games are compatible with 10.5.5 I suggest you visit the developers' web sites and make you inquiries there. They can provide you with the only definitive information about their games' compatibility with OS X.

HT1296 I'm having difficulty syncing my iCal between my home computer and iPhone. New entries from my home are not syncing with the phone and vice-versa. I didn't have any problems with this before until the latest phone update. Any suggestions?

It could be that the existing wire in your appartment is not clean enough to provision DSL only. When combined with the phone possibly it has a higher line voltage and worked before. Now that the line is to be provisioned without phone service it may be giving them trouble that did not show before they came out and ran the new line test. So a new jack dedecated for your DSL line may require a new wire be run to your appartment. Also the account for internet only used to require direct billing to a credit card or something else. This was a number of years ago. Most accounts are linked to a phone number, and without a voice number it adds to the confusion.
If you are getting the voice and everything turned on as before, then I am at a loss for words.

Yes, I had found a similar solution also. I'm running XP Pro, SP3. I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair. Then run the 10.5 exe.
While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess. Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes. Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing. I haven't begun to work on that.

I went to upgrade itunes and when it finally downloaded, i got the following message: There is a problem with this windows installer. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
I was advised to unistall the old itune, which i did and then loaded the latest itune 10.5 i think. It dowloaded fine to a point and before finishing, it came up with the same message.
Is the problem with the itune installer or my windows installer on my laptop?

Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:

Hi there, I cannot open bridge and I get this warning, "Adobe Bridge Cannot be Opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Bridge CC works with this version of Mac OS X. You may need to reinstall any updates for this application and Mac OS X" although bridge has been running on my Mac for over a yera. I have installed all current updates for Mac and reinstalled Bridge again from CC and still get the same issue? Any advice?

Would you please provide details about your setup?

I have tried VERY unsuccessfully to install the new iphoto 9.2.3 update.
I have installed it several times both from the appstore and from Apple Support downloads...it says it has 'successfully updated' - then on opening iphoto, a dialogue box pops up and says:
iPhoto cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure iPhoto works with this version of Mac OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OS X.

Insane...I have all my updates including Lion 10.7.3 why does APPLE KEEP SENDING BETAS AS A REAL PRODUCT?
Does anyone know how to copy over a backup from a twinned drive Backup? What files etc.
Thanks tons...

Thanks Terence,
I did get it working finally...and your last advice was what I needed.
I am embarassed that I was an early adopter...SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER and read the problems before creating some for myself.
This was an excercise in frustration, because of the obtuse division between the appstore and Apple Support downloads... it was a bit of a circuitous route...strange that with all the security reciepts and tracking that Apple goes to to prevent piracy... which Steve by his own admission used to build Apple...
Why aren't the server scripts smart enough to say…”HEY DUMMY you can't use this download because you purchased the last iPhoto upgrade from the appstore...and… DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME and precious data BUDGET downloading this gargantuan file which will eat 20% of your expensive 5Gb monthly data allotment!!!…and NOT WORK…only pretend to…and then foul your system….kill your productivity and turn your hair whiter…even worse than LION did.
I am just so antagonized by the inept scripts in recent installations that don't do a diagnostic before allowing installation that is going to corrupt things...I had less effort and frustration when I ran my ATARI with a MAC emulator...rarely lost any productivity to nonsense.
I AM TIRED OF BETAs dressed as products...designed and rushed out for Apple toys that once were tools of the creative trade...COREL...may still have a chance at a comeback if Apple keeps pumping out toys instead of the venerable tools we once adored as income enhancers.

I just ran my updates for my MacBook Pro and now my iphoto won't open. I get a pop up that say's You can't use this version of the applicaton IPhoto with this version of os x. You have iphoto 9.2.3.

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1.

Any Problems With Security Update 2006-002

Hi a few weeks ago I updated my PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.3.9 to Apple Security Update 2006-001 and instantly my Dock Meny dissappeared after installation and Safari broke. My Dock Menu returned after installation but Safari remained broken.
In the end I simply reinstalled Mac OS X Panther from scratch, recreated my user account and copied my data (I had it saved) back to my Mac.
I don't want to run the risk of something like this happening again. I do not have Apple Security Update 2006-001 installed at this time but I do have Apple Security Updates from 2005 installed and 10.3.9 on my system.
If I install Apple Security Update 2006-002 on my Mac (will be updating from 2005 security updates) - not updating 2006-001 to 2006-002 but installing first 2006 Security Update for the first time could I run into any problems?
Want to hear from other users who have installed this update - have updated from 2006-001 and preferrably anyone who is installing this update directly (not over 2006-001) before updating myself.

Ive got some serious problems with 2006-001 (and they wernt cured by installing 2006-002).
Photoshop and flash mx stopped working and I am unable to reinstall either!
Ive deleted all prefs, caches, everything associated with these apps.
Ive tried installing different versions of both apps - but to no avail.
Ive repaired disk permissions (even in single user mode) - and while that did straighten out a few incorrect permissions and uid's it did'nt fix my problems.
Totally at the end of my tether now, and getting impatient with Apple - this is my livelyhood and I cant afford to have downtime!
The "broken webkit" fiasco at the back end of last year was bad enough, but this just takes the p*!
Not happy - but hopeful that someone has a fix (preferably one that doesn't involve archive and restore)....

Any problem with reinstalling updates?

Hi. I have a simple question: Is there any problem with reinstalling the OS X updates, or reinstalling the combo update? That is, I'm running 10.4.7 now. Can I (re)install the the combo update over this already updated OS X? Will this mess anything up? Is it something even worth trying when troubleshooting?
(This is another topic altogether, but FWIW, I'm trying to track down intermittent problems I have logging in, or the system unable to launch apps or shut down.)
20" Intel iMac Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1GB ram

Hi deepermotive, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Yes, you can safely apply the 10.4.7 Combo Updater. It does not matter if you have applied it before. This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing.
This may help your other issues, if not post back.

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

Hi There
Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
Solution to working You Tube app:
-Go to playstore
- Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
- "Et Voila", working again.
This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
Hope it helped.
Best Regards

I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder. I have never had a problem with this before. This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder. Nothing happens.

I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder. I have never had a problem with this before. This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder. Nothing happens.
I checked my secondary harddrive and there is plenty of memory.
I emptied my burn folder but the photos still will not drop into it.
I created a new burn folder, no luck with this either.
230 photos is the maximum size of the events I am trying to move from iPhoto to save elsewhere.
I have shut down and restarted my computer.   No change. The photos still will not drop out of iPhoto.
My Mac Computer Storage shows that I have 62.2GB free out of 249.2GB (movies, photos and contacts taking up the most space)
My Lacie External Harddrive (2TB capacity) shows that I have 1.79TB available. It shows that 207,729,520,640 bytes (207.73 GB on disk) are used.
I have never had this problem before. It is usually very easy to move my photos from iPhoto.
I am not a computer expert (I work in surgery so don't have a need for lots of computer knowledge) so please explain in simple terms.
Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
I really appreciate it.

YES Terence! Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option.
I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs. I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly. I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working.
Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?! I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires.
Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.
