What was the original software for iMac G5 17" 1.6GHz?

I acquired an iMac G5 17" from a friend but it's missing the software. When I turn the computer on it gets stuck at this screen with a folder icon with a blinking question mark in the middle of it. What software originally came with the iMac G5 and is it possible to get that still? Or can I install a newer version of software without additional problems?

The original Mac OS X version was 10.3.5. You can also install 10.4 or 10.5 from a retail DVD and not one which shipped with a Mac.

  • What is the best software for burning a large slideshow with 500 photos and music to DVD?

    What is the best software for burning a large slideshow with 500 photos and music to DVD?

    Are you talking about strictly burning an already put-together slideshow or composing one and then burning it?
    My all time favorite slide show maker is Photo to Movie; you can then burn it from there or get it into iMovie and/or iDVD for the "finishing" touch. My favorite burn software is Toast, although you can use iMovie, iDVD, and Finder as well.

  • How do I get the original software for my HP Pavilion g7-1329wm Notebook PC

    I recently had a vicious virus that encrypted my pictures and files in my computer; had it removed from the computer and now internet explorer does not operate correctly and I have to use Chrome for browsing.  I was told that I need to get the original software to fix this problem, how do I get this and is there anything else I can do?

    Backup your data.
    To perform a factory restore, repeatedly tap the F11 Key at boot to enter the recovery manager.  Follow the screen prompts.
    If no go, use the recovery disks hopefully you created when you got the computer.  If not and if you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144, and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.  If not via the WorldWide site: http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html
    If HP does not have them, they do at Computer Surgeons:

  • What were the original speakers for the G3 B&W PowerPC?

    I am looking to get a set of speakers to go with the cherry 21" CRT Studio Display I picked up (it still has the clear plastic on the apple logos). What are the original speakers that would have been available for this computer? Will any of the the harmon kardon spheres or sound sticks work with this mac? What is a Digital Sound Port (is it just a fancy way of saying L/R/Ground/DC-Power on a four-pin jack like the appletalk mics)? Is USB 1.0 fast enough to run the spheres that were available with the G4 Cube? I am seeking historical accuracy without going beige. Any oldtimers that can remember that far back please offer your sugestions.

    Hi, funkymonkeypie -
    The B&W G3 models did not come with any external speakers as a standard option; the only speaker they came with was the built-in mono one.
    All Macs prior to the G4 Digital Audio model (except the Cube) had analog sound out ports. The Cube had a special external USB amplifier arrangement.
    Not positive, but I believe the USB ports on the B&W G3 were USB 1.1, not 1.0, and are the same as the ones on the Cube. Don't know if the amp and speakers that came with the Cube will work on the B&W.
    Don't know the answers to your other questions - perhaps someone else will post in with those.

  • What is the best software for home movie editing

    Have some old home movies that were digitalized from 8mm film to VOB format.  Want to edit and clean them up and reformat into modern mp4/H.264 format. What is the best software/app to use on iMAC running 10.9.2?  Thank you for any suggestion.

    I would expect that iMovie would be quite adequate for this. If you find it lacking, or if you're just curious, take a look at Final Cut Pro X. There is a thirty day, fully functional trial download so you can find out first and whether it's worth $300 for your purposes.

  • What is the last software for iPod classic 160gb?

    I've got 1.1.2, but for my earphones with remote need >2.0

    Perhaps the problem is because my ipod made ​​2007?
    Yes.  It's likely that your 160 GB model is the one where software version 1.1.2 was the last update for it.  So that's why iTunes is informing you that your iPod is up to date.  Not much else you can do. Sorry.
