WHAT CAN I DO WITH MY DUAL 1.8 GHZ POWERPC G5 RUNNING MAC 0S X 10.4.11?

I am unable to update my firmware any further. what can i do to continue using this machine?

Hello,
As far as Internet goes...
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
I'd avoid version 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/downloads/list
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
The last version with Mac OS 10.4 and PPC support was SeaMonkey 2.0.14.
The last version seamonkey-for-ppc - 2.26 RELEASE - Mac OS X 10.5.x - PPC.

PROJECT SITE:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/seamonkey-for-ppc
register for updates at the SourceForge seamonkey-for-ppc project page
https://sourceforge.net/projects/seamonkey-for-ppc
Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

  • What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor?

    What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor? Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks. Have I finally outgrown OS 10.4.11? Would there be some other problem that would sudden make all my speed take a nose dive? I have 8.5 gigs of RAM...  Please advise!
    Thanks!  Matthew

    Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks.
    First open Console in Applications>Utilities, see if you have reapeating messages.
    How much Free Space do you have on the Hard Drive?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • Will Dual 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 run Leopard?

    I just bought a MacBook Pro and purchased Leopard (had to get the install disks since I bought the Macbook prior to Leopard release). I also have a 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 and need to know if I can load and run Leopard on it? It currently has OS 10.3.9 and would like to get it up to speed and in sync with my MacBook if possible . . . but am still confused about everything I see on in discussions as to whether or not this is possible. Help!
    Robin

    The G4 can readily run Leopard. Here's the requirements:
    *Leopard Technical Requirements*

    However, the license that came with your Leopard install DVD limits you to one Mac, unless you bought the family pack.

    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
    Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...

    No internet access when connected to an available wi-fi network and the same when connected to your carrier's cellular network, or when connected to your carrier's cellular network only?

  • I/O timeout all the time on console - what can I do with my hard drive? Macbook pro late 2011

    My macbook has been extremely slow for a while and after looking on this site I discovered I should look at the console - and noticed I had I/O timeouts all the time which I gather are a problem.
    What can I do with my hard drive? If I back it up using time machine and erase the disk with zeros will the problem continue if I simply restore from time machine?
    Or should I invest in a new hard drive - but if I buy a new hard drive is there something on my computer that will wreck that one as well? i use final cut pro/studio a lot and it's got to the stage where I can barely use it - do I need a 7200rpm hard drive? My current one is a 500gb 5400rpm.
    I have 16gb of RAM in but since upgrading this from 4GB it made a difference to the speed for all of two seconds then the computer returned to its normal slow speed.
    Would appreciate any help on this issue as I'm not particularly technical.

    I wouldn't worry too much about what the Console logs are showing... although I/O timeouts, if related to reading/writing to your disk may be a problem. I would have to see the whole Console message to know for certain...
    Your hard drive is sure to be slowing you down with FCP. Your best bet would be to upgrade to an SSD, if you can afford it. It's the only way you're going to see a real speed increase in FCP as so many large temp/cache files are written to the drive.
    If you can't afford a SSD, you may want to look at a 7200rpm SATA III drive (if your MBP supports SATA III - which model do you have? 2011 or later, I'm assuming, since you note that you've 16GB of RAM?).
    You should also update your OS to 10.7.5 if your profile reading of 10.7.2 is correct. Won't help speed, but will be more reliable -> http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582.

  • I recently upgrade to an iPAD Air. I gave my old iPAD (1st gen) to my wife.  I restored it to original factory conditions.  Now we cannot install iBook on it since it requires iOS 7.  What can we do with older iPADS that are still 100% functional.

    Look at this similar problem in getting Netflix on an iPad 1. Same technique should work for you.

    11 times out of 10, water damaged is not covered under warranty.
    I'm very sorry for your loss.
    Hope you manage to get the moisture out, you can pull teh device apart and shave off the rust and corrosion you see buy purchasing a mobile repair kit, however rust spreads in a matter of months..
    If your issue is resolved, put a checkmark in the green box that contains the resolution.

  • My iphone 5 suddenly has a white blank screen,  no liquid contact or history of fall, what can i do with this problem?

    my iphone 5 suddenly has a white blank screen,  no liquid contact or history of fall, what can i do with this problem?

    Hey there Galileo,
    It sounds like your iPhone screen is solid white and you cannot do anything with it. Take a look at these steps from the following article about that kind of issue:
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

    You can do just about anything with a JPEG image that you can with a raw image. The advantage of working with raw is that it is possible to work with more extremes in exposure. More highlights and shadows can be recovered in a raw image, but there is a lot that can be done with JPEG images as well. All of the library functions and keywording and all the other features of Lightroom can be used on JPEG images just as easily as they can be used on raw images.
    Having said all that, you might be more comfortable using Photoshop Elements. Both programs have trial versions that you can use for 30 days to decide which one or whether both will work for you. It would probably be to your advantage to try them out and decide for yourself.

    This should put to rest the questions if Java is good enough to do serious programming. This is a Demo of a full application that has over 100,000 circulation within the last month.

    I appreciate the response to this posting however please do not email questions to me reguarding how it works or can I help you to do your java homework. <8-)
