Where can I buy Tiger? Upgrading from 10.2.8 to 10.4

I want to upgrade my eMac from 10.2.8 to 10.4 but I don’t know where to buy the Tiger software. The Apple store in Soho (NY) does not carry it anymore.
I want to use my new nano and let me know if you can help. Where can I purchase Tiger at a low cost?
Computer Info.
Mac OS X version 10.2.8
Memory: 640 MB
Processor: 700 Mhz PowerPC G4

Welcome To  Discussions Noemi3580!
Here are images of the Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, that must be used.
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.
Although those are available at the other online retailers, like Amazon, eBay, FastMac, HardCore Mac, AllMac, etc., notice that, the correct one Mac OS X 10.4.6 Tiger, (DVD) Retail at FastMac, is $159.95, And at HardCore Mac, it's $199.99.
The other retailers' prices are comparable, to those quotes.
Both are more expensive, than The Apple Store (U.S.)'s $129.00.
Caveat Emptor!
If any are presently available, examine these items very carefully, and if in doubt, ask questions of the seller before purchase!
Tiger On eBay
Unless you've replaced it, the eMac 700 MHZ has a CD_ROM optical drive.
As Texas Mac Man posted, there are Tiger 10.4.x Cds available at FastMac, but the price is $179.95.
You can also use an alternative method of installation.
Info here Installing Tiger Using Firewire Target Disk Mode.
And here Installing Tiger Without A DVD Drive.
The Tiger Media Exchange Program, referred to, is no longer available.
As I posted above, there is also a version available on CDs, at FastMac.

  • Where can I buy an upgrade from Dreamweaver CS5 to CS6?

    I am looking to get an upgrade from my current Dreamweaver CS 5.0 to CS 6.0
    I found this upgrade
    Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 Upgrade from CS5.5 WIN/MAC [Download]
    that is from CS5.5 to 6.0, but I don't know if it will ONLY work with CS5.5 or if it will also upgrade the 5.0 version as well
    Anyone know how i can upgrade my dreamweaver to version 6?

    I'm reasonably certain the upgrade you found at that third party site would not work with your version.
    But it looks like you still qualify for partial upgrade pricing through Adobe, it drops from $399 for the full version to $249 going from 5.0 to 6.0 (skipping 5.5)...
    http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.html?promoid=KFPHB
    1. Click the Buy link under the Dreamweaver CS6 $399..00 price.
    2. Change "I want to buy" to "Upgrade"
    3. Change "I own" to "CS5" and the price changes to the Upgrade Pricing
    If you had 5.5, the price would only be $125 to upgrade through Adobe (that third party site is charging a little more than Adobe does for the same upgrade).

  • Where can I download the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6?

    Where can I download the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6?

    Call 1-800-MY-APPLE to buy the DVD ... no download for it.
    $19 for single user license, $29 for 5-user license (Apple will eventually stop sellingand only Amazon at $100+ will be left, so you may want to buy a 5-user pack now).

  • Where can i buy ipad? from london

      I live in the UK. I am going to buy an ipad, Where can i buy ipad nearby? no need queue!

    If you are asking if you can purchase from the online Apple Store and have them ship to another country, no. The US Apple Store will ship only to the fifty United States. You would have to get the iPad shipped to you, assuming you are in the US, and then send it overseas yourself. If you are not in the US, then you probably cannot order from the US Apple Store at all since they will not accept non-US credit cards, though it might be possible to get them to accept an international money order or wire transfer. They still will not ship outside the US, though.

  • Where can I buy Tiger in Canada??

    Hi pretty straightforward question - I have an emac, 1ghz, 256mb- I need to upgrade to tiger so i can work home access via citrix but needs minimum of Tiger. I cannot get leopard as my specs on my Mac arent good enough but cannot find anywhere to buy tiger as its now outdated - i live in Toronto- any recommendations very welcome (apart from get a new mac thanks!)

    Hi Chris, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    You have to be careful which Tiger Install Disks you buy, there are many Machine specific gray colored ones.
    Ebay seems the best.
    You can easily add more RAM & run Leopord though...

  • Where can I find the upgrade from Elements 9 to Elements 12?

    I cannot find the page to upgrade Elements.  Can someone please give me a link?
    Thank you

    You have to purchase upgrades from one version number to another. The adobe upgrade is linked on the main product page for PSE, but it's usually silly to buy the upgrade because most of the time you can find the full version for less at big box stores and major online retailers if you aren't in a big hurry.

  • Where can i find the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2?

    Hello there.
    Is the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2 still available out there somewhere? I know I'm a bit behind the rest of the world but financially I'm taking the 'do the best with what you can' route!
    Never used logic before, moving up from garageband and cubase sx cos everyone says it's a better program.
    Many thanks,
    GDx

    Hi
    If I remember correctly, the 7.2 update was a "Paid for" update, with a new dvd.... so you are most likely out of luck.
    The good news is that Logic Pro is pretty cheap on the Appstore

  • Can i buy an upgrade from CS5 design prenium windows to CS6 design prenium Mac ?

    Hello,
    As i said in the title, i purchased Student Edition of CS5 Design Premium for student and i'd like to upgrade it to the same edition to CS6 for Mac.
    is it possible ?
    I don't find where i can do that in the adobe's website. I've bought it on it the first time.

    Bonjour,
    Comme je l'ai mis dans le titre, j'ai acheter fin 2011 la suite design prenium CS 5 pour étudiant et je souhaiterais acheter une mise a jour vers la CS6 design prenium version Mac.
    Est-ce possible et si oui comment ?
    Je ne trouve pas d'endroit pour le faire sur le site adobe, sachant que je l'avais acheté sur leur site la premiere fois.
    D'avance merci pour votre aide !
    Benjamin

    There are no upgrades for S&T editions other than going commercial. If you are still a student you simply buy a new Mac license.

  • PANIC! where can I buy a sightflex from?

    Anyone know where I can get a sightflex from in the UK? I need it for a birthday present this weekend so would appreciate any leads you may have.
    Powerbook G4 Aluminium G4 dual 500   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Did you check google or ebay? I just googled it and looked under froogle, and found several site still selling them, but they may not have updated their site. Ya it's been discontinued since MacMice went belly-up.
    OK, to save you some time, I found this site: http://www.mac-pro.com/s.nl;jsessionid=ac112b6c1f439aedb0f5660048c5a2bd8415246c9 e47.e3eTaxiMa38Te3uSb3uKahyMbO1ynknvrkLOlQzNp65In0?sc=2&category=334&it=A&id=246 9
    They have a bunch of macmice products including some of their new products. Won't get it by this weekend, but I have one and use it with my 15" ACD and it's great.
    Good Luck,
    -Brian

  • Where can I download an upgrade from CS5 Design Premium to CS6 Design Premium?

    I am frustrated with the site - cannot find a way to upgrade to CS6 from CS5.

    Hi there,
         You can download Design & Web Premium CS6 from the below link:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=designweb_premium&loc=en_us
    Once you download and install, you need to use CS6 serial number in the first screen and click next. On the next screen when it says "Previous qualifying version not available", please select CS5 Design Premium from the drop down list and enter your CS5 serial number and click next. It should then activate without any issues.

  • How much RAM can upgrade my Powerbook G4 with and where can I buy it?

    I would like to increase the speed/processing power of my Powerbook G4. Any advice on the following appreciated:
    1) What is the max RAM I can put into it? There seem to be problems logged on this discussion forum at 2GB by some users?
    2) Where can I buy compatible RAM - it is no longer available on the Apple store (neither UK where I live nor US)?
    3) are there any other upgrades I can make to speed up my Powerbook?
    My current Powerbook details are:
    Machine Name: PowerBook G4 15"
    Machine Model: PowerBook5,2
    CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.1)
    Number Of CPUs: 1
    CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
    Memory: 768 MB - DDR SDRAM
    Bus Speed: 167 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: 4.7.1f1
    Graphics - ATI Mobility Radeon 9600
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Hi, Mark. Your Powerbook can use up to 2GB of RAM, and there is no increased risk of trouble when using the maximum as long as the RAM used is suitable. Suitable RAM can be ordered from scores of online vendors. I don't know what the best sources in the UK might be, but I suggest that you look for Samsung, Crucial, or Hynix branded RAM from a vendor whose web site explicitly advertises it as compatible with Aluminum Powerbook G4s.

  • HT1338 Where can I buy Snow Leopard so that I may upgrade to Lion?

    Where can I buy Snow Leopard so that I may upgrade to Lion?

    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    If you need to purchase Lion contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
