Ok, it's just a glitch that it's not auto-rebooting from the disk.
Please backup your personal files off the machine to a regualr external drive and disconnect all drives before doing anything
Take the 10.6 disk out and clean and polish the bottom with a very soft clean cloth and a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol to cut the oils.
Stick the disk in and reboot holding c key down, this will make it boot from the disk and you can install Snow Leopard that way.

    Can anyone help me figure out how to sync my ipod with my purchased music?  I have used several computer and at one point synced my ipod with a computer that only had about half of my music.  My other computers are no longer working.  Not sure how to get my purchased music back onto my ipod?

    Hi kimcinma!
    Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

  • I have an IMac 10.5.2 from about 5 years ago and recently my flash player stopped responding.  I tried to update my flash player but it tells me I need an updated system to install the player.  Can anyone help me figure out how to solve this problem?

    I have an imac osx 10.5.2 from about five years ago and recently my flash player stopped operating/responding.  Does anyone know if I have to install a new flash player?  I have attempted it several times and it won't let me.  I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this problem.  Do I need a new operating system?

    Why have you not updated to 10.5.8?
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:

    If you run into the "another installation" message even after the reboot of the PC (which is an excellent idea by HTP ProXy), reregistering your Windows Installer Service is worth a try.
    First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Restart the PC and try another reinstalll.

    Try a Safe Boot: Restart holding down the shift key until you (hopefully) see a grey progress bar. Once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu. Any change?
    How much RAM do you have installed?

    I got my series number from my Institut (which is in Paris, FR). I do not use Creative Cloud.
    When I was installing the software, I cannot select a language.
    Could you help me with my problem? Do I have to get a different series number?

    lunc,
    You will have to get a new application in English, to replace the French one.
    You, or your Institute will have to get help from Adobe, I am afraid.
    You may try a chat here,
    Get help with orders, refunds, and exchanges (non-CC, chat open between 5AM and 7PM PST/PDT on workdays)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service-b.html
    or (have your Institute) talk to Adobe in France
    http://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-connect/adobe-connect-phone-numbers.html
    If you fail to get any help, please report back here, and I will ask a special forum staff friend to try to find the right one at Adobe to have things sorted out.

    Have you checked your iCloud settings on your Mac or PC. And if you are using a Mac, have you also activated Photo Stream for iPhoto or Aperture?

    you should still be able to get a copy of Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), which should run on your G5.

  • I have a 6thgen Nano, and all the recent songs I've purchased from iTunes wont play at normal volume when connected via audio cable. Can anyone help me figure out why?

    This is a semi-new problem, ongoing for several months. I've purchased songs from iTunes before and they play just fine on my Nano when connected to an audio jack cable, but for some reason, anything downloaded in the last few months plays at an insanely low volume. Normally, if I hit the advance button on the Nano to skip to the next song I'll hear a split second of the song at normal volume, but that's it.
    I've restored both the iPod and my iTunes (using a Dell laptop, Windows 7) multiple times but to no avail. The songs play fine in iTunes itself, but I've even noticed a decrease in volume when listening to the songs on headphones. I'm beyond frustrated with this as I can't find any support online in the Apple archives, and I can't listen to any of my new music without burning to disc. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    I have, a couple different pairs, unfortunately, and still no change. TBH, the headphones don't bug me nearly as bad as the fact that I can't plug my iPod into a radio or speaker with an audio cable and hear my latest purchases. Drives me crazy that I can't listen to my tunes!

    what do you think of this...
    The FCC orders Verizon Wireless to pay
    $1.25 million as settlement to the Treasury. This is just a parcel of the
    carrier’s $6.9 billion
    revenue
    it has gained from the mobile market in the second quarter of this year. The
    company is also ordered to notify Google that the objection to the tethering
    apps from the Play Store is now off. This means that when new tethering apps
    become available in the app store, everyone would be able to download and use
    them without additional fees even if they are Verizon
    customers.
    Verizon will, of course, continue to
    charge its customers with their overall data use every month so for those who
    have capped data will not be able to enjoy tethering functionality but the ones
    with unlimited data plans are the luckiest. The FCC’s ruling made everybody a
    winner; consumers under the network would be able to share their connection, app
    developers don’t fear of being blocked when releasing tethering apps, and
    Verizon can attract more customers to subscribe to their unlimited
    plan.
