Where to get Mac OS 9.1?

Hello, I heard that Apple provides downloads for these old OS systems. I did find an old link to a 9.1 disk image but the link is no longer valid. Where would I be able to find this now? Thanks for any help!
http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English -North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/System_7.5_Version_7.5.3/

Apple does not provide downloads for any complete OS later than OS 7.5.3. All downloads for OS 9.x and OS 8.x from Apple are updates only, which require a specified pre-existing OS version to be already installed before the update can be installed.
If you need OS 9.1, you can get if from sites like Hardcore Mac; unfortunately, their prices are high. Other possible sources would be an Apple User Group (most universities and larger sities have them); or perhaps Ebay or similar.
Note that if your machine needs a model-specific version of OS 9.1, no other version will suffice including a retail version. However, a retail version of OS 9.2.1 should work with such a machine.

Where to get Mac software?

I just got two imacs - one for myself and one for my wife. Being new to Apple computers, we would like to where is the best places to buy Mac software, or maybe Freeware? Any suggestions as to web sites would be most appreciated. One of our main concerns (having just come from the PC world) is finding web sites that are trustworthy, i.e., no malicious codes, spyware, etc.

I would spend time at these sites where Mac software is reviewed.

Wher to get Mac OS X 10.5/leopard DVD and matching Ilife

I have a power mac G4, 1,5GHz with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and want to upgrade to 10.5 Leopard and new version of Ilife. Is it still possible to get hold og this?

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
MB022Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

Where to get Mac OS DVD

When I bought my MacBook Pro it had lion os. I upgraded to mountain lion. I want to install windows 7 using boot camp. It's asking me to insert my Mac OS disk. But I don't have one. How do I get one?

The Current versions of Boot Camp don't ask for the Mac OS disk, they ask you for the Windows Drivers disc (or USB stick). What version of BootCamp Assistant ar eyou running on your Mac OS? It almost sounds like you pulled out an older Snow Leopard DVD to install Boot Camp, and now it wants you to use the Snow Leopard DVD for the Windows support files (as they are in a second session on the install DVD).

Where to get Mac OS X Server 10.5 (Leopard Server)?

Hi All,
My colleague is an ADC Member (paid a couple hundred dollars for this). He was able to download Mac OS X Server 10.6 (Snow Leopard) for FREE. He tried to search for a link to download Mac OS X Server 10.5 (Leopard Server) but could not find anything.
As an ADC Member, is there any way to request a link to download Leopard Server for FREE?
We need Leopard Server for development purposes.
Thank your very much.

Hi
http://developer.apple.com/contact/
and ask the question. I somehow doubt it but you never know? I think it's still possible to purchase Leopard Server through Service Support rather than Sales? Otherwise you're probably looking at buying it from the Web:

System files are hidden by default in Finder now, search for what you want then click the little + button on the top right of the bar that appears when you do a search. A new bar comes up and click the first box (that says "Kind"), change it to "System Files". Then change the box that says "aren't included" to "are included" and your file should show up.

What & where to get version of disk utility to use for mac os x 10.6.3?

i recently installed snow leopard to my macbook 13 inch and wanted to reformat my usb flash drive and external buffalo mini station. the disk utility cannot be used. the computer said i cant use this version of disk utility with mac os x snow leopard coz i have disk utility version 11.1.
what now? can somebody please advice what version of disk utility to get and where to get it.
thanks.
gina

You either messed up the install or you subsequently copied an older version of Disk Utility from another machine, an old backup or the like. It's hard to know exactly what happened, but without more info I would view your system as potentially compromised and would recommend reinstalling it. Just run the installer and install on top of the system you have currently installed. It'll replace all the system components and leave everything else alone. (Of course, it should go without saying that you should have a good set of backups before doing anything like this.)

Where can I get Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7?

I downloaded Adobe Photoshop Lightroom4 then I was told that I need Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7 in order to use it. My Mac is Mac OS X 10.5.8. I asked where I could find the appropriate version here : https://discussions.apple.com/message/18754476?ac_cid=op123456#18754476
I bought the one my advisor recommended, but it was a wrong version and I still need Mac OS X v10.6.8. or 10.7.
1. How can I return the disc I bought?
2. Where can I get Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7, NOT ANY other version?

1. Ask the seller for a refund.
2. You need to purchase the Mac OS X 10.6.3 DVD or Mac OS X 10.7 flash drive from a source such as the online Apple Store. Any Mac OS X 10.6.8 install DVDs you may come across are machine specific and can't be used to upgrade.

My ibook g4 took a install from apple update . Why is it not going past the screen where is shows Mac OS X

My ibook g4 took a install from apple update . Why is it not going past the screen where is shows Mac OS X

Did you verify the hard drive before installing the update? You could have had hard drive corruption where the computer did not know where all the files are and something didn't get installed correctly.
Did you repair permissions? The installer may not have been able to overwrite a file if the permissions on files were not set correctly.
Frankly, the easiest thing will be to re-install the operating system from the installer disc. While booted to the disc make sure you run Disk Utility First Aid to repair the drive and permissions, then install. Many of us prefer to download updates from Apple rather than rely upon Software update. we use SU to tell us what we need but we download them separately.
For which operating system was this update? Apple hasn't brought out a new system update for G4s in quite a while.

Imac not booting, Able to get to disk ulility with snow leopard disk. Tap on had disk, not given choice to do anything. Information list that smart is certified and partition map is us formatted. How do I get mac to start up again?

Imac not starting up, keep getting white screen. Using snow leopard. Able to get to disk utilities with snow leopard installation disk. Tap on had disk, not given choice to certified disk or anything else. Information on disk states that smart status is certified. Partition map I formatted. Also tried to restore from back up, but get error: not enough disk space. Tried to erase disk, but unable. What do I do next to get mac to start up?

Thank you. That's what I thought will need to happen.
One more question. I tried using the Apple install disk that came with the computer. It's an OS 10.5.6 disk. It does not see my 10.6.8 system internal hard drive to repair. All it see's is itself 10.5.6 disk. Do you think I can use a 10.8+ disk utillity since that is a higher system it will see the 10.6.8. Where the 10.5.6 does not?
I don't want to turn the computer off for fear I'll get the question mark again. P-Ram got me going last time but for how long I don't know? It would be nice to be able to turn the computer off for the night and startup as usual to give it a rest and try to reset itself.
Thanks for your help, I know I will eventually need to re-install. But I am in the middle of a project with tight deadlines and all I can do right now is back-up. Trying to migrate to another computer temporarily to finish the job. That's a lot of extra work in the short time also.
Just trying to put a band-aid on it for another couple weeks.

Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium, it cost more than €2,000. When I recently tried to re-install it due to having to reformat my hard drive I could no longer activate it over the phone or online.
When I rang the help number it directed me to the downloadable versions that don't require activation. Great! UNTIL I realise Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional is only available for Windows as a download.
Where is the download for the Mac Version as it not included in the bundle either. This is extremely urgent. Thank you in advance.

To maswatson
The answer to your question of March 12, 2015 – "Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation[?]" – is … nowhere. That doesn't mean it's not available to you, however. I have successfully installed several CS2 programs and Acrobat 7, on two computers.
The hard drive on my MacBook Air crashed recently. After a new drive was installed I had to reload various programs, including CS2 Premium. I used the original disks and the serial number on the package.
When I tried to open InDesign, however, I got an "Activate Using the Internet" message which led to an "Activation Server Unavailable" message that gave me three options, the last of which was "Click the Phone Activation button to activate the product over the phone." I called the toll-fee number and heard the following recorded message: "We no longer support activation issues over the phone."
So I searched the Web, figuring that others had encountered and solved this problem. Eventually, I found "Creative Suite Help / Download Acrobat 7 and OS2 Products" at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I also found "How to Fix Adobe’s “Licensing for this product has stopped working” Error by Aaron Nelsen at http://hijinksinc.com/2010/01/20/how-to-fix-adobes-licensing-for-this-product-has-stopped- working-error/. He writes "… you MUST delete adobe_00080000_tsf.data and adobe_00080000_event.log" which is found in /Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/FLEXnet. So I did that.
I also deleted Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, and Photoshop CS2 from my Applications folder. I did not delete Acrobat 7 or GoLive.
After clicking on "English" at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#, I downloaded Illustrator CS2 for Mac, InDesign CS2 for Mac, and Photoshop CS2 for Mac. I was not able to download Acrobat 7 because the only option is for Windows. As you know, there is no download for Mac.
Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, and Photoshop CS2 all opened without any problems. When I tried to open GoLive, I got the same "Activate Using the Internet" message I got at the outset, when I tried to open InDesign. I proceeded, and now have a 30-day trial. The same limitation has been placed on Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, because I downloaded them, whereas GoLive was installed from the CS2 disks.
Next, I opened Acrobat 7.0 Professional – the one installed from the original CS2 disks. It works fine.
BOTTOM LINE: If you want Acrobat 7.0 Professional, install Creative Suite using original CS2 disks, then delete the other CS2 programs from those disks. If you want Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, Photoshop CS2, and others, download them from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I am hoping this explanation will help you. I feel great sympathy for you because the "answers" you received have been obtuse and clearly less than helpful. (I requested a "Yes," "No," or "Don't know" answer to a very straightforward question, but didn't get it.)
My experience tells me that the answer to your question "Where is the Mac downloadable version of Adobe Acrobat 7 Pro that doesn't require activation[?]" – is … nowhere, but you don't need to download it. It's on the original disks and it does not require activation. That's why Adobe did not included it with the Windows version at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs2-product-downloads.html#.
I hope this answers your question, solves your problem, and ends your frustration.

Where to get v.4 pls

How do I downgrade to Safari 4? And where to get it?? version 5 is really really bad. It slows down my entire system. (I dont have any 3rd party plugins or whatever)

Don't give up on it yet!
If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have) and it is misbehaving:
N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings, and don't change the application's name or move it from the top level of the Applications Folder to a sub-folder.
(If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall. Alternatively you can download Safari directly:
Safari 4.1.2 for Tiger can be downloaded here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069
Safari 5.0.2 for Leopard (and Snow Leopard) can be downloaded from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
Also, observe the recommended procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta and which was updated to v.3.1.2, and now Tiger uses Safari 4.1.2 and Leopard uses Safari 5.0.2, as does Snow Leopard albeit a different version. If these latest versions of Safari are not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
(Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as previous versions of Safari used a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet, and the dreaded CT Toolbar. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for the latest version of Safari on your current operating system.
You must also ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates. These require a restart and a permission repair.
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
• Hard Disk/Library/InputManagers
• Home/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates and updates to Safari (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
Lastly, the Safari updates require a restart of your Mac, and sometimes even a double restart is required.
