Will Kensington Trackball work with Leopard?

At a local users group meeting one of the members said that he could not get his Kensington mice and trackballs to work under OS 10.5. I have the Expert Mouse (trackball w/ turbo ring). Does anyone have experience with these devices working or not working under Leopard? Thank you!

Yes.
I've got a Kensington Turbo Mouse Pro (trackball with 4 large buttons around the ball and 6 small programable buttons above the ball near the cable) that was working fine in Tiger.
I upgraded to Leopard and it wasn't working right, so I downloaded a new copy of their driver (I think it was dated 2006). It wasn't special for Leopard, but I thought I'd try it.
Not only did it work, but my button preferences survived and it's working as well as it did with Tiger. All of my buttons are programmed for keystrokes and they work well in what ever program I'm running.

  • Will Garageband 2 work with Leopard?

    Will Garageband 2 work with Leopard?
    Thanks!

    I have been using the a6|2m, but one of the last updates (I can't tell exactly which) have now made the interface unusable: After a few bars of recording, I get distortion and delay of 1/2 sec. Also, the Audio-Midi-Setup and Logic don't work together anymore, e.g. if I change in Audio-Midi-Setup to 2 recording channels, Logic still offers six (or if I change to 96kHz, Logic doesn't notice the change, which produces quite strange output).
    Can anyone using the a6|2m confirm this problem?
    I've tested the interface with an older system (10.4.9) and a PC, on both systems it worked perfectly, so hardware faults can be excluded.

  • Will Office 2004 work with Leopard?

    I'm about to install Leopard on my MacBook. Will Office 2004 continue to work, or will I need to re-install/upgrade/buy new software? Thanks

    Word, Excel, and Powerpoint have no trouble launching. Some have had trouble printing though. There is a new free update from Microsoft which may fix that issue, but I haven't yet seen any reports.
    I would backup your work before installing Leopard in any case, just in case you may have underlying issue that wasn't resolved as my FAQ* explains:

  • Will Photoshop CS1 work with Leopard (OS 10.5.X)?

    Due to budgets restraints, I cannot afford to update Adobe Photoshop. I have been using Photoshop CS1 on OS 10.4.11. If I update to OS 10.5.X, will I be able to use CS1? I cannot seem to find another source for an answer to this question so I am trying the forum. Any input would be most helpful!

    It may but not reliably. All you can do is try. But backup your current system in case you find that you need to return to 10.4.x.

  • Will icloud work with Leopard 10.5?

    Will iCloud work with Leopard 10.5 running on a mini?

    Hi there, depends what you want. Lon/10.7.x is neeeded for full support on the Mac.
    You can view everything in any Broweser, but you can't Sync anything other than setting up an iCloud IMAP account...
    iCloud Mail setup...
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
              ▪          Server name: imap.mail.me.com

    From here on out, unless you're dependent on the latest iDevices I'd look elsewhere for solutions, understandably Apple is looking out for Apple, but what I don't understand is how long they can ignore user's needs.

  • Will the MBox work with my Leopard OS/ Garageband/Pro Tools?

    I was told that they didn't have the drivers updated for Leopard. Does anyone know if they are now?
    Thanks!

    I have a digi 002 working with Leopard. Pro Tools and Rewire both work great.
    A Few Tips
    o Ensure your drive is formatted as Mac OSX Extended (non-case-sensitive)
    o Ensure you have Pro Tools LE 7.4 (a purchased update
    o Ensure you have Pro Tools LE 7.4 cs2 update (free cs update)
    It is officially not supported so be ready for problems. I wouldn't buy anything until it is official. 7.3 didn't work at all for me.

    It's not even compatible with Windows 7 and probably you will find many browser compatibility issues if generating webhelp.

  • IDVD doesn't work with Leopard

    Hi, I recently installed Leopard and have had no problems with it until I tried to use iDVD today and found that the themes will not load. Does an upgrade to iLife 08 solve this problem?
    I previously had no problems using iDVD. Below are the specs from my computer.

    Hi
    Yes iDVD 5 doesn't work with Leopard.
    Installing iLife08 will install iDVD 08 which works BUT NOW iMovie'08 will not work
    though it needs a G5 1.9GHz minimum. So You need to download iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4)
    which You are entitled to as an iLife08 owner.

  • Osascript for remote login does not work with Leopard

    We are testing Leopard on one computer in our labs. The only problem so far is that the osascript that we use to remote login to the computers stopped working (although it works fine on the Tiger machines):
    osascript <<EndOfMyScript
    tell application "System Events"
    keystroke "public"
    keystroke tab
    delay 0.5
    keystroke return
    keystroke tab
    delay 0.5
    keystroke return
    keystroke return
    end tell
    EndOfMyScript
    This is a public account with no user password. I've read the discussion below, but have not been able to tweak the command so that it works with Leopard. Any suggestions?
    Thanks.
    http://lists.apple.com/archives/Remote-desktop/2007/Nov/msg00045.html

    I'm having a similar problem - the script below works with my G5 iMacs running 10.4.9 but not the Intel iMacs running 10.4.8. It almost works - the username and password appear in the right boxes, so I run around the room pressing the Return key.
    # This script when used with ASR Send UNIX command will login workstations at the LoginWindow.
    # The script assumes that the cursor is focused in the Name field.
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "username"'; \
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke tab'; \
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delay 0.5'; \
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "password"'; \
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delay 0.5'; \
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke return'

  • Updating FREE version of iPhoto to work with Leopard?

    Recently upgraded our iBook G4 to Leopard. Now, the System says iPhoto 2.04 (free version) won't work with Leopard. None of the iPhoto upgrades avalable (4, 5, 6) work as upgrades. In the iPhoto discussion, others said the only option is to PAY for iLife '08.
    Is that true? I have iPhoto v5.04 on my PB G4, and it works under Leopard. I never purchased iLife.
    Suggestions, please

    I don't know for sure about iPhoto 2's (in)compatibility with Leopard, but if that part is true, then you will have to pay for the upgrade.
    iPhoto 2 is over five years old. Besides the fact that the current version is WAY more advanced, I have to say that any software that only makes you pay for an upgrade one time in a period of almost six years is a tremendous bargain.

  • Fast dvd copy dosen't work with leopard

    Fast dvd copy dosen't work with leopard. Does anyone have the same problem and do you have any suggestion to making it work? I have the current version 4.06 and I have written to Velor the software people, but no answer yet.

  • Do older HP Laserjets work with Leopard?

    I have an old Laserjet 5MP, which I adore. It works great and shows no signs of dying anytime soon.
    I've read of all the Leopard printer issues with trepidation... I would like to upgrade, but I sure as heck don't want to buy a new printer!
    Does anyone know if this printer will work with Leopard? I'd hate to go through the expense and trouble of upgrading the OS for nothing.
    Thanks!
    Erin

    Erin-
    Yes. I have no problems printing to my LaserJet 5P since I upgraded to Leopard (my understanding is that the "M" in "5MP" reflects its postscript capabilities, intended for Mac users, and which the 5P lacks).
    The 5P manual (the same manual used for the 5MP) discusses connecting to a Mac with either a serial cable (Apple Part #922158) or LocalTalk cable (for LocalTalk networks) (see page 1-10 of the manual). I've been printing to the 5P through my Windows network; the LaserJet is connected to an XP Pro box via its LPT: (parallel) port and my PowerBook "sees" the 5P through the network.
    For drivers I use CUPS/Gutenprint v5.02 (last stable release, 5-Jan-08) (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3); it's the only driver that has worked with my Windows/Linux/OS X network setup.
    Any questions, just holler!
    Good luck,
    Ken S
    I see that my reply was preceded by Monty's. Now you have two people to blame if you have problems. Monty deserves the credit anyway: his Mac setup is way cooler than mine--and I want it!!

  • FCP not working with Leopard

    Every time I try and launch FCP5 Studio 2 it gives me the "This application Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly." Anyone have a solution to this? Anyone else experienced this?
    Do I just have to wait for an update?

    Having same problem with FCP v 6.0.1 and tried the FCP Rescue 6..... Also does not work with Leopard.
    I am just about to try this proceedure.
    Delete the User Preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Final Cut Pro back to its original settings. This will not impact your project files, but you should verify your Scratch Disk location setting after doing this. To reset your Final Cut Pro user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
    In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences—the tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
    Remove the “com.apple.finalcutpro.plist” file from the Preferences folder.
    Remove the “Final Cut Pro User Data” folder from the Preferences folder.
    Will report shortly.
