When I open the download manager it says cannot be supported by this architecture. Do I need to install something?

Do I need to install something?
No. You need to get a new Mac.

  • Firefox can't open the application "because it is not supported on this architecture

    "You cannot open the application "Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture."

    Thanks for the link to the system requirements, edmeister. However, my system appears to fit every requirements listed, but still gives the same error message.
    Here is what my system profiler tells me about my Imac:
    Mac OS X v. 10.5.8
    Processor: 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, which Wikipedia tells me is "x86" processor
    3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    My Activity Monitor says:
    1.87 GB of my system memory free
    303 GB of hard disk space free
    Is there some explanation why I am being told Firefox 4 is not being supported on this architecture?

  • MAC running on 10.5.8 trying to upgrade to Firefox 9.0. unable to use it as it said"You can't open the application because it's not supported on this architecture"

    I've read your recommended work around, that said to trash all previous versions of Firefox, I've done so and now have no browser other than Safari.

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; '''''yours is a PPC Mac''''') '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher.

    '''''The good news''''' is that Firefox 3.6.x still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. '''''The bad news''''' is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

  • When I try to play minecraft, it says "not supported on this architecture"

    Please answer this question ASAP.

    You should consult the minecraft site/forums/wiki, as there are a number of recommended configurations, both miniimum and better performance. Note that "cheap" and "no lag" may be somewhat contradictory, however, anything is possible in the used market. 
    Also, this discussion area is probably not a good one to ask in, if you intend on staying with a mac system to play the game. You might ask in the macbook discussion here or macbook air discussion here or macbook pro discussion here. (Assuming you want to stay with a notebook computer).

  • When i try to open the iPhoto app, i getting a message "you can't open the application because it is not supported on this type of mac"

    when i try to open the iPhoto app, i getting a message "you can't open the application because it is not supported on this type of mac"

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Why will my address book not open it says not supported on this architecture

    When I clicked on my address book widget a received a note that says "not supported on this architecture" and would not open my address book.

  • Director PowerPC processors (PPC ) can't open the application because it is "not supported on this a

    I created a projector in Adobe Director 11.5 for the Mac.
    For some reason PowerPC processors (PPC ) can't open it because they received a message saying the application is "not supported on this architecture."
    And idea if there is a way to make projectors compatible for the Mac PPC processors?
    Thanks,

    Check your product version by typing "put the productVersion" into the message panel - if you don't get the response "11.5.9" then update the to latest patch by selecting the Update option from Director's Help menu. (I suspect you already are on 11.5.9, though, otherwise you wouldn't get this problem).
    Next, go to the Publish Settings page, and under the projector tab you will notice an option to create the Mac projector as either a "Universal Binary" or an "Intel Binary"
    Universal Binary will run natively on PPC Macs, and will run under Rosetta on Intel Macs running up-to-and-including OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
    Intel Binary will run on all Intel Macs running OSX 10.5 and upwards.
    Rosetta is a virtualisation layer built into OSX versions up to 10.6; It allows programs written for PPC to run on Intel Macs. Rosetta was dropped from OSX 10.7 (Lion), so a UB projector won't work on Lion.
    Hope that helps

  • Installation says not support on this architecture

    I am trying to install creative suite 5 design premium and it tells me that it can't open application because it's not supported on this architecture.  I am running osx 10.5.8 on a Mac G5.  I was told to uninstall my previous CS3 but it is still showing some programs in admin/preferences (just folders) so I tried to download the creative suite cleaner tool and it gives me the same message re: not supported on this architecture.  It allowed me to install acrobat 9 pro with no problem.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and help figure this out?  Thank you.

    That's what I was afraid of.  My hard drive crashed and had to get a new one.  Unfortunately, they could not save my cs3 and I had purchased my computer from my previous employer and it was already loaded with cs3 and they have since gone out-of-business and I did not receive any installation disks or numbers for this program.  I guess I'm just sol.  Spent all my extra $ on new hard drive and CS5.  Thank you for your help.  It is appreciated very much.

    Since the 9/20/13 update, I see a circle with a line through it on top of the Safari application. When I try to execute anyway, I get:
       "You can't open the application Safari because it is not supported on this type of Mac."
    I vaguely remember some capability to rollback any updates. Is this true?
    Where should I go from here?

    First you need to clear out some space on the startup volume. You should have at least 9 GB available. Then do as follows.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it.

  • Cannot open the application "Firefox.app" because it is not supported on this architecture-what does that mean?.

    Firefox has always worked fine...until I installed v4. Now I get the above error, and it won't launch. I'm running OSX v10.5.8, and all of my drivers/software are up to date.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • I can't open firefox 4 because it's "not supported on this architecture"

    I'm using MacOS 10.5 on an eMac (Power), had used Firefox before without any problem. I looked at the other questions and found an explanation: Firefox 4 on a Mac requires the Intel processor.
    So, it can't work. You should have warned me, but now my old Firefox is gone. I have nothing, I'm stranded.
    All I'm asking is: let me download an older version of Firefox

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
