When you buy Leopard does Tiger go?

When you buy Leopard and put it on your computer does it totally get rid of Tiger, so even if you don't like Leopard you can't switch back? Also how have you enjoyed using it. I have an iMac Intel Core 2 Duo made last September, also a 500gb harddrive. Thanks.

Hey Brown,
I would highly recommend backing up your entire Mac HD to an external drive... use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a duplicate of it. Then, you can always go back if you want to. It is smart to do before installing a new OS anyway. (as you can tell by all the posts on this forum)
Leopard is working fine for me. Had a problem with incompatibility with SideTrack but that's it. It's really not THAT different from Tiger. Appearance is slightly different but not much. Spaces is a nice feature for me as I use my MacBook for work, school and home. TimeMachine seems good though with a MacBook I'm not hooked up to my external drive consistently like a desktop, so I'll need to make an effort to do that more often so I have backups.
The only two things I really don't like so far is that I can no longer download hotmail to Mail and some of the changes to iCal. But, I'll get used to them.
Overall... I like it!
James

  • Does Apple sell iDVD any longer?  Supposedly when you buy iLife it`s included.  My new machine didn`t have it.  I thought it was included with Lion.

    Yes.  Only on disk (my preferred way to purchase software).

    It is, if you buy iLife on disk.

    Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  Then ask to speak to a senior advisor by requesting a callback.

    If you are still within your 15 day return period,  nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD.
    Then ask to speak to a senior advisor by requesting a callback That usually does the trick.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices... 

  • Does mac has adobe web premium installed when you buy it?

    i would just like to know if a mac has adobe web premium installed on it when you buy a mac or do you have to buy adobe web premium?
    Also what is better apple macbook pro or apple macbook air i would mainly be using it to unlcok and flash samsungs

    I don't know what would be best for you. I prefer the Macbook Pro. Maybe you value the light weight of the Air more. I prefer the larger screen and more powerful processing of the 15" Macbook Pro.

    AFAIK, there is no suich thing. There is no listing for iLife in Apple's online store. iPhoto, GarageBand & iMovie can only be obtained through the Mac app store.

  • Do you get receipt from Apple when you buy via gift card?

    Yesterday I bought something through a gift card on the app store, however I haven't received any receipt from Apple yet, is this normal? Does Apple send receipt to your email when you buy something via the gift card?
    TIA!

    You may not get the receipt for a few days. This is not abnormal.

    Did the original songs that do not appear on the car player play in the Music app on the iPod? Sometimes glitches happen and they do not. Also, If y ohave a 5G iPod/iOS 7, purchase songs  will show with an cloud icon by them if they are not downloaded if Shall All is turned on in Settings>iTunes and App Store

  • What virus scan if any is on the original iPad when you buy it

    What virus protection if any is on the original iPad. When you buy it?

    Lets consider a few things, is the iPad generally safe on the interwebs without some sort of third party scan (scam) ware in your premise.
    Lets risk assess how many most/all PC and later day Mac systems become infected/compromised .
    They are auto downloads through a browser or Email attachments with auto-scripting of some sort.
    Open ports (no fire walling)
    Social engineering.
    And via Flash scripting.
    1) Now as for the IPad, built in protection consists of preventing virtually anything being downloaded/installed via the web browser. PDF can be but viewed within a sandbox.
    2) All authorized apps are distributed and installed only via Apples approval process via the App Store and ITunes
    (Some corporates can install their own software via private channels at a cost)
    3) A factory (Not jailbreaked) ios device has no access to command line so no ports can not be opened with ease.
    4) Social engineering - this usually involves driving the victim to their web browser then see point 1 above or point 5 below.
    5) Apple and Adobe haven't found a way to get a version of Flash to work on ios devices within the Apple released developer SDK and APIs. So no risk of running compromised Flash in foreseeable future at least not on a factory ios device.
    6) You do however run the very real risk of theft and even this has been considered with Find My iPad/iPhone apps and remote locking and system wiping functionality.
    Other than adding resource overhead what else could third party virus scanning do on such a locked down system ?

  • HT1349 When you buy an audiobook from iTunes where do you open it to hear it?

    When you buy an audiobook from iTunes, where do you open it to start reading it.

    If you download or sync an audiobook to the iPad then you can listen to it in the Music app - when their audiobooks on the iPad you should get an Audiobooks option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app.
    Note that audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so if you buy any directly on the iPad you may want to connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) so that you can take a backup copy.
