Your iMac needs to meet the technical requirements and then you have to buy it from the App Store.

  • MacPro 3.1 will not upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Hi. I have a MacPro 3.1 with 2 x 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Xenon Processors, 6 GB of Ram. The computer is a standard Apple Unit.
    I cannot get it to install Snow Leopard. Info elsewhere on this site suggests it should run under Snow Leopard. I have put the system back to Factory state with a clean install of 10.5. It still will not accept the Snow Leopard.
    I suspect the problem may be me trying to use installer disks recently supplied with my new MacBook Pro 13", 2.53 GHz. Can anyone confirm this issue. If I buy another copy of Snow Leopard, that is not apparently Machine specific, will it install?

    Yes, the disks are your problem. All you need to erase and install Snow on you MP is the $29.00 Snow upgrade disk. You do not need to ever had have Leopard installed.

  • IMac will not boot from Snow Leopard DVD or original Leopard disc!

    Hey,
    I am going mad! I am trying to update my iMac (with original Leopard installed) to Snow Leopard. Here is what I have tried:
    Using the Snow Leopard DVD:
    - A standard install: the disc ejects after about 15 minutes.
    - Put another working DVD in and verified it in Disk Utility, all ok.
    - Verified the internal hard drive in Disk Utility, all ok.
    - Verfied the SL DVD, all ok.
    - Decided to try a clean install, so backed up everything.
    - Tried to boot from SL DVD by using the Utilities option, it ejects the disc at restart.
    - Tried to force it to boot to the DVD by restarting and holding the C key, it ejects.
    - Restart holding the Option key, it ejects.
    - Restart holding the Ctrl, Alt and Option keys, ejects.
    - Everytime it ejects and starts up normally.
    - So I cleaned the disc, updated all the firmware, reset the NVRAM/PRAM via holding keys when restarting, and repaired disc permissions.
    - Tried to force it to boot again, ejects.
    - Tried to put the disc back in straight after it ejects with all the steps, still starts up normally.
    - Changed the start up disc in System Preferences to the SL DVD, restart, it ejects.
    By now I am readying the noose...
    - Dug out the original Leopard installation CDs.
    - Repeated all the forced boot restarts (C key, Option key, Ctrl, Alt, Option keys), same story.
    - Repeated changing the start up disc in System Prefs, same story again.
    - Call Apple Support, they told me to try everything I have tried and that the DVD drive is dodgy, well it works with everyhting else! Burning and reading! I really don't want to have to go to an Apple Store- it's miles away (a costly journey) and I just do not have the time for all of this.
    RAWR! Does anyone know what to do? Please? S.O.S.?

    Possible scenarios:
    1: The 10.6.3 SL retail disk is bad, it happens.
    2: Your not using the 10.6.3 SL retail disk but one from another machine which doesn't have the drivers for that machine.
    3: Your optical drive is funky or some other hardware issues.
    4: Your trying to install 10.6 onto a PowerPC based Mac, no can do.
    5: Your not using a wired keyboard for boot key commands, have some other hardware conflicts.
    Possible solutions.
    1: Copy the SL 10.6.3 disk using Disk Utility to another DVD, the error checking may resolve the original disk's issue.
    http://www.brokenhomeboy.co.uk/pierow/blog/2011/10/make-a-bootable-backup-snow-l eopard-install-disc/
    2: Make a SL bootable USB
    http://www.maciverse.com/install-os-x-snow-leopard-from-usb-flash-drive.html
    3: Call Apple for a new 10.6.3 disk (and make copies for backup before Apple discontinues selling it)
    If your upgrading to 10.6 to get to 10.6.8 to upgrade to 10.7, be warned of this:
    1: Your 10.5 software will not work in 10.7, no more Rosetta or PPC based code.
    2: Your hardware will not qualify if it's a 32 bit Intel Core Duo, also you may experience slowdowns in performance over 10.6 (10.6 is the fastest OS X version for Intel Macs) in older Intel hardware (I suggest Early 2011 Mac's and later only for Lion)
    3: Mountain Lion 10.8 is reportingly coming out this summer and will not run on a lot of older Intel based Mac's because of heftier graphics requirements.
    4: 10.6 has the widest range of current avaialble software and drivers for third party hardware.
    My advice, stick with 10.6.8 and stay there, buy a new Mountain Lion machine after this summer. Skip Lion completely.

  • Win 7 in Boot Camp: Drivers will not install from snow leopard cd.

    I have a early 2011 Macbook Pro (8,1). I am loading Windows 7 with Boot Camp, but cannot get any of the drivers to install. (ethernet, video, etc)
    I have tried both the Snow Leopard cd (I think it's Boot Camp 3.2?), and also downloading drivers online, neither work. I have tried reformatting/reinstalling, and even tried loading a old copy of XP and I had the exact same problem there too.
    What happens: I install the drivers successfully, restart, and nothing has changed. I can see the drivers installed in the programs list (when I go to "uninstall programs") but if I go to Device Manager all of the devices (ethernet, video, etc) show a yellow triangle and say they need drivers! It's like I'm installing the wrong drivers or something.
    I can't find any other posts with a problem like this, I have been working on this forever and am kind of at my wits end. Any ideas??

    Don't believe what Apple posts.
    If you don't have EFI64 like 2008 and later Mac Pro, then you will run into a hurdle and have to modify the Windows DVD to get it to boot and install.
    To Apple, and due to the non-standard way they implemented UEFI, and that ours (2006/7 Mac Pro) all there was that we got was the 2005 EFI32 (affects our choices in graphics cards too).
    I installed 32-bit, then installed 64-bit on another partition.
    The DVD can be modified, from Windows, most easy method would be from any of the VMs like VirtualBox. Then use one of the 2-3 Imgburn or other tricks mentioned online (search for "Jowie" and search for the "Select CD-ROM" error you get trying to boot).

  • When downloading yosemite to upgrade from snow leopard the download appears to overload my internet and will not complete and forces a restart of my modem. Anyone else have this problem?

    When downloading yosemite to upgrade from snow leopard (10.6.8) the download stops partway through and appears to have overloaded the internet, causing me to have to restart the modem.I have an Imac 8,i with 4gb of ram, which is supposed to support yosemite. Anyone else having this problem?

    I am not sure it is the modem, but I use a Webstar by scientific atlanta provided by the local dsl.

  • I want to upgrade to Lightroom 5, but I'm concerned about compatibility with my 2008 intel Core 2 Duo iMac with only 4G of Ram.  Will I be able to run Lighroom 5 if I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion?

    I want to upgrade to Lightroom 5, but I'm concerned about compatibility with my 2008 intel Core 2 Duo iMac with only 4G of Ram.  Will I be able to run Lightroom 5 okay if I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion?  What will happen to the applications that aren't 64-bit compatible?  Also the Eye-one Display 2 colorimeter to calibrate the monitor will not run on Lion, so that will be an expensive upgrade to an i1DisplayPro. Is the upgrade important enough to offset the expense?  I have an Epson R2000 printer.  Will there be problems with the drivers if I upgrade to Lion?  It would be great to hear from other mac users who are also photographers and who print their own photos.    

    Before upgrading to Lion be sure to read this link:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271
    Adobe lists these requirements:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html
    Looking at http://www.everymac.com/ even the earliest 2008 iMac was fully 64 bit, even though Boot Camp doesn't support 64 bit Windows on that machine.

  • Will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

    will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

    Impossible to know. But I would make a backup before doing so, just in case. I would also do the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If you wish to save yourself a lot time should you need to reinstall Mavericks at some point in the future then see the following:
    Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
    After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
       2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
    Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
    You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
    You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this entire command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
         sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume
         /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
    Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
    Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time. When completed it would be wise to test the installer by checking that it boots the computer and is then ready for installation.

  • My audio aggregate device is not stable in Mountain Lion, it was fine before I upgraded from Snow Leopard - every time I reboot the computer it loses the configuration and so it is not available in Logic Pro

    My audio aggregate device is not stable in Mountain Lion - it was fine before I upgraded from Snow Leopard. Every time I reboot the audio aggregate device (MOTU TRAVELER, MOTU PRE8 1, MOTU PRE8) has to be reconfigured so that it is available within Logic Pro.

    Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
    Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
    Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
    NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
    LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

  • Will upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion create problems within Premiere projects?

    I'm looking at the probability of upgrading from Mac OSX 10.6 to 10.8 (Mountain Lion).  I have to if I want to install or upgrade just about anything at this point.
    I was hoping to wait until the latest Premiere project was finished to avoid creating possible discrepancies between how the project plays back before and after the upgrade.  I'll skip the details and just say that it might be best if I do the upgrade now and install a new GPU to help with the massive amounts of rendering/playback needed.  Will upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion cause any likely problems?  No other Adobe apps are involved with this project.
    I'm running a Mac Pro 5,1 and Adobe CS6.  I have two separate clone drives of my current boot disk as well as a Time Machine back up.  So I can go back if I really need to.  I'll also make sure the project is saved manually elsewhere.
    Thanks for any input!

    I'm Win, not Mac, but I do have a couple saved messages

  • I have a big problem with Lion and PGP. After upgrading from snow leopard to lion I cannot access my PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start but gives a notion that lion cannot work with my PGP version. Solution?

    After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion I cannot access a PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start. When I try to start I just receive a message that Lion cannot work with PGP. How can I now access important and confifential informatio which I have stored in PGP (snow leopard). Do I have to move back to snow leopard. If so, how can I do this? 

    If you have this product,
    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH165159
    you have to go back to Snow Leopard.
    To re-install SL, back up your home directory, format and re-install.

  • Can I upgrade from snow leopard 10.6.8 to mountain lion? Not sure how old my MacBook is. How can I find that information?

    Can I upgrade from snow leopard 10.6.8 to mountain lion on my MacBook?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and compare the model identifier with MacBook5,1, which is the earliest MacBook that can run Mountain Lion and newer.
    A MacBook older than that which has a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU and at least 2GB of RAM can run Lion 10.7, which is available by clicking here. Neither Mountain Lion nor Lion support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004.

  • Is Lion (not Mountain Lion) still available for upgrading from snow leopard

    Is Lion (not mountain lion) still available for download and upgrading from snow leopard?

    Lion is no longer available from the Mac App Store. Even the thumb drive version has been withdrawn. It should be possible to get it by calling Apple Phone Sales.
