What app replaces MacJanitor for Snow Leopard

I need an app to replace MacJanitor for Snow Leopard, and Lion. Any suggestions???

Not really needed and I don't know of anything. Snow Leopard runs the periodic scripts at wake up if the computer has been sleeping. But you can rotate the system.log manually. This doesn't get run if the computer has been asleep (I think it's midnight.) See the command and instructions in my post in this nearby thread.

What is mail version for Snow Leopard 10.6.8?

I had switched to iCloud from MobileMe some months ago. Today opened Mail and iCloud imap acct wasn't there. Then mailboxes loaded but in prefs the acct is labeled "Mobile Me." And mail version is 4.6. What happened? What to do ?

Snow Leopard has never heard of iCloud so you have to set Mail up manually for the different servers. If you are having problems I suggest deleting the account you have and setting it up from scratch as described here:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
You may find it it described as 'Mobileme IMAP" - don't worry about that, as long as you follow the procedure it should work fine.

What operating system needed for snow leopard?

I have Power PC G5 10.5.8. It does not have itel.
Can I upgrade to snow leopard?
It does not have itel.

You are at the max OS for you system (PowerPC). Anything higher requires an Intel processor, which cannot be retrofitted for what you'd pay for a working Intel Mac.

If your profile is correct you're already on the final version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Sure it wasn't Lion it was asking for?
If that's the only version available on the app store, you'll need to source a copy of the iWork '09 DVD - not cheap now - only available via Amazon or eBay etc.

What is the latest version of XCode for Snow Leopard?

I have XCode 4.0.2 for Snow Leopard installed. Is that the latest version available for Snow Leopard?
Is Apple pushing us to upgrade to Lion to get a version newer than 4.0.2. I see that XCode 4.2 is available for Lion.
David.

This information might be useful for those who are not members of the $99/year iOS Developer Program. I am not a member, I have Snow Leopard, and I purchased Xcode 4.0 for $5 from the Mac App Store in March 2011. Just for fun I searched the app store for Xcode. As expected, the only search result is Xcode 4.2 with stated minimum requirement 10.7 (Lion). I am curious why it even shows Snow Leopard users the active Free button that implies I can download it. I don't know how the app store works but I assume it would not let me install this on 10.6 Snow Leopard.
But the Purchased view shows Xcode for Snow Leopard. I noticed the button on the right showed Update rather than Installed. Clicking the item name to find details including the version number shows Your request could not be completed. I decided to update in hopes this would be 4.2. I deleted Install Xcode from my Applications folder, restarted the App Store, then pressed the Update button. 1.77GB later I have Install Xcode in my Applications folder, preview shows version 4.2 (used to show 4.0.2),
The installer just finished running, I now have Xcode 4.2 build 4C199. About Xcode.pdf in the Developer folder starts with Developer tools for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and iOS 5. So this is clearly not exactly the same as Xcode 4.2 for Lion. It does include the iOS 5 SDK, LLVM 3.0, etc. Not sure what is different in the Lion build.

I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard. Now there is a new Xcode for Lion, so I downloaded the new one but the installed continued to be the old one. Now App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me to re-download Xcode. How can I proceed?

I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard 12 days ago. After installing Lion I saw there is a new FREE Xcode for it, so I downloaded the new one but after installing automatically Xcode for Lion the Developer folder contained the old one. I deleted the old Xcode but the App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me re-download Xcode.
How can I proceed? I'm guessing whether this problem will occur each time I buy an application from App Store.

Yes, that's righ, Xcode installer was in the Apps folder. I assumed it had been automatically installed and the installer deleted after installation (the same way as Lion is installed).
I tried also the procedure for redownloding applications, and MAS showed both Xcodes (Lion and Snow Leopard) and OS X Lion. We see that buttons for Lion and Xcode for Snow Leopard say 'Install' but Xcode for Lion says 'installed' because there is an Install Scode in the Apps folder.
Thank you.

What do I need to be ready for Snow Leopard?

I have an Intel Mac Pro with OS X 10.5.8. What do I need to do to be ready for Snow Leopard? Specifically, do I need to do an intermediate OS X upgrade?
Thanks.
David

PLEASE tell people what model.
And no one knows but it is possible that Pre-2008 model will not be supported as they lack UEFI.
It is possible to boot ML even so but that could change. MacPro 1,1 and 2,1 likely will not be supported, those models dont' support 64-bit kernel mode.
My guess, stay where you are until you need to or buy a new Mac.

Why cant i re-download xcode 4 for snow leopard from the mac app store?

i reformatted my mac's hd and didnt back up applications that i bought from the mac appstore cause its easy to re-download, so im trying to re-download and instal xcode for snow leopard the one that you purchase for 5 dollars

Been trying about 2 weeks now to get the xcode 4 for snow leopard that I purchased for $5 installed on my new macbook pro but I get the same error. After several frustrating calls and emails the final verdict from Apple was either contact the developer and get a copy (uh Apple right?) or you just can't install it since they've removed it from the App Store. They said just upgrade to Lion but I can't upgrade to Lion on my work machine since well Lion brings down our NAS. So I'm totally hosed on this one. Apple should not force us to move to Lion. That's not right.
There isn't a version of Xcode on this machine so there shouldn't be any conflicts. I REALLY need Xcode 4 installed and this is really frustrating because I already paid for the thing.

How can I obtain the Pages app which I previously purchased from the App store for Snow Leopard? The only download now available is for Mountain Lion which my computer can't run. Thanks

Try Amazon but look for the iWork suite of software. It's only sold separately as Pages, Keynote, and Numbers from the App Store.

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update software for snow leopard. What do I do? Turn off my imac?

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update of software for snow leopard. What do I do? Should I turn off the computer?

do a hard shutdown of the mac (holding down the power button until it shuts off) then do an SMC reset, the following article tells how to do this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
after doing this reset and restarting the mac, try again to install the update.

Is there a autosave app for snow leopard kinda like the autosave for lion?

Is there a autosave app for snow leopard kinda like the autosave for lion? Since I do alot of illustrator and photoshop design I would love to have this feature.

None that I've seen. It would do no good to upgrade your OS to Lion either since Adobe has opted to ignore Apple's Autosave/Versions function. Even in the CS6 apps. In order for any app to work with Autosave/Version in Lion, it has to be written to use those functions. It isn't just "there" all the time for all apps.

What is current version iPhoto for Snow Leopard?

What is the current version of iPhoto for Snow Leopard? I have used iPhoto ever since 10.6.8 was installed --use Software Update all the time, my current iPhoto says it's v. 8.3.1. Now, suddenly, when I try to open iPhoto, messages says : " The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library. (choices are) Quit - - Upgrade"
I am fearful to click the upgrade because I have assumed iPhoto was up-to-date for this OS 10.6.8. Fearful, because I envision losing the whole iPhoto library. I was in our local reseller/retailer yesterday and was encouraged to "just go ahead and click it!" but tho' I'm not a nerd, I need to understand what's going on here ! WIll appreciate any thoughtful counsel . . .

Security updates for snow leopard

Hello Apple People,
I seem to be getting conflicting advice around upgrading my browser.
I'm on Snow Leopard on a mid-2009 Macbook. As I'm not receiving security updates and there are some websites telling me I need to upgrade, I decided to buy Mountain Lion from the online Apple Store. I couldn't redeem the code. I spoke with Apple who said I didn't need to get ML anyway, that I'd been given the wrong advice in-store and that I can go straight to Yosemite. They are refunding me which is good. Still, I'm no further ahead. I had prepared the way for upgrading: added 2GB RAM so I have 4GB. I've installed Office 2011 so that I shouldn't lose my Word 2004 docs. I have an external hard drive that I back up using Time Machine.
My concern is that I am vulnerable security-wise. Can anyone suggest what I do next? Maybe maximise my security settings? How can I find these?
Thanks.

Nothing compels you to keep using Safari. Firefox and Chrome work very well with Snow Leopard and are kept up to date. Interesting that the people who handled your problem with Mountain Lion were so eager to push you to Yosemite, rather than fix the problem.
The other thing you can do right now is go into your System Preferences/Date & Time and turn off "Set date and time automatically". You can fix this vulnerability yourself with a little not-too-difficult work:
http://www.macissues.com/2014/12/24/how-to-manually-patch-ntp-for-os-x-10-6-and- 10-7/
I am not at all expert in using Terminal to do stuff like this, but I was able to assemble the necessary peices and get it done. It is well worth it to me to be able to keep using the best OS Apple has produced in the OS X era.
Regardless of which one you choose, there is no support for older apps that dowork with Snow Leopard because it has Rosetta, which allows continued use of PPC applications. Sounds like you are preparing for that end of things.
There are many changes to the user interface in both Mountain Lion and Yosemite, and they are generally not improvements. There are problems with improper external disk ejection in both of them that will apparently never be fixed by Apple. You should make a bootable clone of your Snow Leopard system in case you want or need to keep using it. This would involve using an external HD other than your current Time Machine disk. Not a big expense, as it affords you an additional, fully functional backup, and it would be better than burning your bridges by installing over your currently functioning system.

IMessage for Snow Leopard (10.6.8)

I am on a MacBook Pro, 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo, with 4GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM, running OS 10.6.8.
I am currently deployed to Afghanistan (p.s. the internet is pretty slow over here).
I always have my iPhone with me for taking pictures, and there are a few hotspots near the USO area where I can access the wifi and use iMessage with friends and family back in the world, email, Facebook, etc..
When I am in my room, I do have wired internet that I pay for through an ISP called sniperhill. I use my MacBook Pro here in my room.
Is there a version of iMessage that I can install on my MacBook Pro to replace iChat and then be able to iMessage my friends and family on their iOS devices (the folks I am messaging all have iPhone 4S or newer). I found a place to download iMessage for Mac, but after a 45+ minute download, it turned out to require 10.7 or later. D'oh!
I use iChat sometimes to video chat with my wife and kids, but they aren't always on the MacBook at the house. If I could iMessage them while in my room on my laptop, then we could coordinate to have them power up and hop in front of the MacBook at home, then I could use FaceTime 1.0.2 to chat with them.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

HI,
Sorry about the delay.
I also see there are 19 "Me Too" clicks.
iMessages is the service run by Apple that basically started with the iOS devices and was a beta for a time in Lion (OS X 10.7) which also was date limited and ended on the 14th December 2012.
It is no only available with the Messages app in Mountain Lion.
FaceTime is available for Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) and can then FaceTime to those iOS devices.

Wish List Updates for Snow Leopard

If you support any of the following, please send them to Apple's suggestion box.
I would like Apple to offer the following settings, preferably without third party fixes. HOWEVER, feel free to respond with your favorite work-around solutions. I need to learn Terminal!
1. Safari - close download window upon completion
2. Safari - remove ALL cookies and cached items when "resetting" same. There are always a select few that have to be manually deleted
3. Safari - have a built in video downloader/converter - Yes there are good third party solutions for this
4. Safari - allow Private Viewing as a default option
1.Pointer options - Create an option in preferences to enable the pointer to automatically go the default option selection (as is possible in that "other" operating system. You know, the one that pirated the window concept)
1. Apple mail - #1 request is identify a way to allow the numerous superior email clients interface as seamlessly with other native apps.
2. Apple mail - short of that, create a setting to turn off or allow a time setting to override an email automatically being marked as read if it happens to be highlighted with you open the app, thereby appearing in the preview pane. Appearing in the preview pane does not mean I have read it.
3. Apple mail - provide an option for creating return receipts requests
4. Apple mail - What it that box that appears around blocks of text in received mail that makes editing more difficult than it should be
5. Apple mail - Provide a tool to apply the formatting to other parts of the email (sort of like the paint brush tool in that OS with the "W" word)
6. Apple mail - If I label a sender as "not-junk" do not put label mail from this sender as Junk. I do not want all senders in my address book.
7. Apple mail - If I label a sender as "JUNK" future mail from this sender should also be JUNK, no?
8. Apple mail - Create a rule that allows "Bounce" as an option
1. iPhoto - I know I must be missing something here, so please chime in -
How or what can I do to save photos into iPhoto when I am not using iPhoto. The most common annoyance for me is saving photos off email attachment or from the web. There MUST be something I am doing wrong. Where is the "Save to iPhoto Library" option?
1. QuickTime - Please bring back QT Player 7!!!
12. I know we mustn’t use "other" browsers, but in those rare events that it happens - how nice would it be to have a native bookmark sync option or common folder?
13. Finder - allow more columns in the viewing options for Spotlight
Please feel free to add to the list.

So may words, so little help. You do realize that they call this a Support Community, right?
1. Safari - close download window upon completion
Mine already does this, and I'm sure you can do it in Snow Leopard, too.
     When you refer to "mine," what OS are you referring to? Are you willing to share your knowledge on where I might find this capability?
3. Safari - have a built in video downloader/converter - Yes there are good third party solutions for this
That's not the job of a browser, and it's not going to happen. Keep dreaming.
     Thanks again for the helpful advice. I am impressed with our willingness to help.
4. Safari - allow Private Viewing as a default option
You can turn it on yourself. There's also AppleScript, or assigning a keyboard shortcut.
     I am very aware of how to turn it on. I would prefer to leave it on by default. Care to share your AppleScript knowledge?
Apple mail - provide an option for creating return receipts requests
It's been there for years—where have you been?
     Thanks again for the poweruser tip, very helpful.
1. Apple mail - #1 request is identify a way to allow the numerous superior email clients interface as seamlessly with other native apps.
That's entirely your opinion, which isn't shared by the vast majority of Mac users.
     I am sorry I do not share you opinion, nor did I know you speak for the majority of Mac users. Perhaps with your superior guidance I would become a power user too?
Where is the "Save to iPhoto Library" option?
Have you tried looking at the options given to you when you receive email with attachments? There's a Save button in the Header section that gives you the option to save the image to iPhoto.
     And how does this sugggestion help when downloading a photo from the web?
Perhaps if you spent time getting to know your Mac and OS X, you'd find that there aren't nearly as many "issues" as you seem to imagine.
     Yes, and I perhaps if you would share a bit of your superior knowledge I would agree. That was my hope in posting to a "support community." You put a fair amount of effort into your criticism. Just "imagnie..."
