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.

  • I am using an early 2008 MacBook Pro and am having issues with it deleting text on its own (in word, emails, etc.). As I am typing it all of a sudden starts deleting and I can't stop it. What can I do?

    I am using an early 2008 MacBook Pro and am having issues with it deleting text on its own (in word, emails, etc.). As I am typing it all of a sudden starts deleting and I can't stop it. This happened once before and it was due to a buldging battery pressing on the track pad. I checked the battery and it appears to be fine. What can I do?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Need to run windows OS on my macbook pro at the same time with MAC OS. what do i use

    I need to run windows OS & office so i can access my company server. What is the best platform to use & which will enable you to run both oS at the same time.
    Thanks

    Depending on the specific features that you think you need in a Virtual Machine, you should research the paid "Parallels" and "VMWare Fusion", and the free yet very capable "VirtualBox".  I personally use VirtualBox because it does NOT include all of the Mac-to-VM interactivity features that the others do.  For performance and security reasons, I specifically do not want my VM to be able to interact with my Mac OS host in any way other than copy and paste.
    On your Windows VM, if you are running windows 8.1, and are not logged in as an administrator as your primary account, then the built in Windows Defender is a perfectly suitable for anti-malware protection.  If you are running Windows 7 (or 8.1) and want additional protection I would recommend "BitDefender Free" as it has great protection yet has a very light-weight performance hit.

  • What is the newest OS I can use on a 15-inch 2008 MacBook Pro (Early/Aluminum)

    I've read some of the other posts about this, but there seems to be a bit of confusion.

    And there are old rusty car fans whose collection
    may include the 70s Maverick and Comet twins...!
    A neighbor found an old car installed as a septic upgrade.
    Not sure that affected the operating system in a good way
    & it took an 'expert product specialist' not a genius, to fix.
    Not sure about surfing, maybe names of internet cafés?

  • I'd like to replace my hard drive.  How do I know what to buy for my 15-inch early 2008 MacBook Pro?

    I am out of room on my hard drive.  I'd like to get a new hard drive and restore my data to the new drive from Time Machine.  How do I know what kind of hard drive to buy for my 15-inch, early 2008 MacBook Pro?  Also, how hard is this to do? 

    I have changed HDDs several times on the old MBP.  Currently it has a Hitachi 500 GB HDD that came out of my new one.  My adage is that one cannot have too much storage and I think that the 1TB HDD is an excellent choice.  Not only do you get generous capacity, the performance should be (theoretically) comparable to a 750 GB 7200 rpm HDD.  I will be very surprised if there are compatibility problems.
    If you bought the HDD from OWC, you should have received Installation instructions.  If not, go to the OWC website and look at the video.  I actually downloaded it so that I could hand write the instructions down step by step.  Also check out iFixit website.  They have step by step instructions that may prove to be useful.
    Tools you need:  00 Phillips and #6 Torx Drivers (get good ones).   The instructions make mention of a plastic pry bar (spudger).  I use a stiff piece of plastic like a credit card.
    Tips to keep in mind:  Get a large open table space and place a large clean towel on it.  That will protect your MBP and when you drop a screw (and you will) it will not bounce far so you will not have to spend an hour looking for it.
    As you take out a set of screws, keep them together (I use wide masking tape.  The little screws will stick to it.)
    Keep the sets in sequence.  That will make reassembly much, much easier.
    The most difficult steps are removing the keyboard from the MBP body and removing the ribbon cable from the mother board.  In case of the former, work from the back (the display) to the front.  You will initially have to pry it up and then do a lot of jiggling to remove it.  Don't be too timid about it.  At the end of the ribbon cable there is a rectangular connector.  Use your credit card to remove it.  Just pry it off.
    The #6 Torx driver is used to take off the 4 mounting pins on the HDD and if I remember correctly there is another place where it is needed, specifically in the battery compartment ( I think).  If the instructions don't say so, keep that in mind and inspect the screw before you select the driver.
    Good luck and make sure that you don't have parts left over.
    Ciao.

  • Should I get a 2008 MacBook Pro 2.4ghz with 4gb of ram or macbook aluminum 2008 2.4ghz 4gb of ram? And which is thinner?

    Hello everyone I would like to know if I should get the 2008 MacBook Pro non unibody 2.4ghz 4gb of ram or should I get a macbook aluminum unibody with the same specs? And does anyone know which is thinner?

    Go with the aluminum, which is also thinner. The Late-2008 aluminum model is the oldest model MacBook capable of running the latest version of OS X (Mountain Lion).

  • What version of iphoto should i download for my OS X Mountain Lion

    what version of iphoto should i download for my OS X Mountain Lion and how can i get back my ivideo for my mac? it is gone after i installed 10.8.2 version

    There is only one version of iPhoto. What version do you own? iPhoto is usually bundled with a Mac, so you should have a version. The current version 9.4.2.
    How did you upgrade to 10.8.2 and from what version of OS X?
    If you just did a plain upgrade without erasing the disk, then iVideo should still be in your Applications folder.

  • What iOS Developer Program Should we choose.

    Hello, this is my first question here,
    I work in a development enterprise, and we want develop iOS Applications ONLY for our clients.
    We have our Windows Based Desktop Application; and we want to give iPhone support to our clients, I think this is called B2B (Business to business) Applications. We don't want the app appears in the App Store, we need the app private, because we only want give acces for the app to our clients, and maybe we also need the work with the VPP (Volume Purchase Program).
    Then, what iOS Developer Program should we choose?

    hey was reading through it and um
    Let me put it like this:
    You do not need a iOS subscription to trade apps between clients if you do not intend to distribute them on the App Store.
    this is all you do
    - Buy Mac Computer
    - Download xCode
    - Make Apps
    - Then distribute privately via email or an online app sharing tool.
    I would assume that you would know the clients in person so you could just load the apps for them onto thier devices and the collect the money they owe after everything works well
    Just to clarify for you:
    The paid iOS subscription is to distribuate apps on the App Store.
    Apple does not handle private dealings thats all on you.
    hope this helps you!
    best of luck

  • What version of Oracle should I use?
