OS X :: 64-bit Applications Running On Snow Leopard?

Feb 18, 2009

I just opened up Activity Monitor to force quit an app, and to my surprise I have two processes that are running as 64-bit. I thought this was a Snow Leopard thing?

Applications :: Alternative To Senuti For New Mac Running Snow Leopard

May 31, 2010

I recently bought a new machine that is running Snow Leopard. It's my understanding that my old Leopard version of Senuti will not work with 10.6. I also understand that 10.6 Senuti now is a paid App. I did a search, and I wasn't able to find anything that seemed like there was a good, free alternative to Senuti.

OS X :: Is There A Free Way To Run/emulate OS X Snow Leopard While Running Leopard?

Dec 3, 2010

Is there a free way to run/emulate OS X Snow Leopard while running Leopard?

I had a billion problems when I upgraded to Snow Leopard but some software that I don't use frequently only works with it so I want to be able to run those apps while still staying in my less buggy OS X Leopard.

I don't want to have dual boot operating systems. OS X Leopard 10.5 is my primary OS.

OS X :: 10.6 Snow Leopard Running On PPC?

Jul 3, 2009

As all of you know, according to Apple, Snow Leopard runs only on Intel chips. Also, as a lot of you know, PPC and Intel versions of OS X report themselves as such, ie PPC 10.5, Intel 10.5 and so on...

Yesterday, as I was looking over my traffic logs, I found something quite interesting...

"PPC 10.6"

I got one visit right after the day of WWDC, and another visit just 2 days ago...

Someone just spoofing what their machine reports? Or someone running an an early internal build of SL during which time maybe they had multiple versions?

OS X :: How Much RAM Can I Put In My IMac Running Snow Leopard

Sep 26, 2009

I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and one of the questions I'm struggling to find an answer to, is just how much RAM can I put in my iMac? I'm running a 3.06GHz core 2 duo iMac, 2008 (last model, without the new fancy graphics card). And, it currently runs 4Gb of RAM. With all of the Snow Leopard talk of your system running a virtually infinite amount of RAM, how much can I run???

Am I limited in some way by the motherboard in my iMac? Or can I "fill my boots!!"?

I've attached a screenshot of my current system configuration.

OS X :: Running IDVD7 04 In Snow Leopard 10.6.x?

Nov 15, 2009

I finally needed to use iDVD to make a DVD for family members of the pictures I took an my niece's wedding. I told my wife "Sure, no problem we can do that on my Mac..." [URL] I have spent the last two weekends, and most of last week trying to get iDVD to work. My poor MBP. I reinstalled, deleted plists files, rooted out every trace of the program, repaired permissions, reinstalled, updated, searched Apple's site for some clue, all with no joy...

The program will open, allow me to start a project, and then just disappear. If I try to exit, it comes back and asks if "I want to save the project," then the dreaded spinning beach ball. I have to force quit the program. On the other hand, if I go the Magic Disk route, it will let me assemble the project, but when I try to preview, or save the project, the program disappears completely. ARG, So frustrating!!!

[URL]

Today I was at least able to make a DVD to show proof of concept to my lovely wife...

It dawned on me that when I installed Snow Leopard, I did it on a minty fresh 500 gig hard drive. I still had the old Leopard 10.5 on the old disk I had in a USB external case, which I keep at work as a backup. (I recommend when a major upgrade happens to purchase two of the largest hard drives available at that time, using one for a time machine, and the other one to install the new OS on, keeping the old disk as a backup in case of disaster. Until now I have never Needed the old system...) Anyway I brought it home, plugged it into the MBP, and had no problem making the disk.

So, this leads me to the question, "Has anyone else had success-running iDVD 7.04 from iLife 08 in Snow Leopard 10.6.x?" If so, what hoops did you have to jump through to get it to work? It seems on the sites I looked at anyway that iDVD from iLife 09 is not much different, but I don't know anyone here in town who has it to test it out. I would love to be able to work from SL, rather than off my old backup.

OS X :: Running Out Of Inodes On Snow Leopard?

Jun 14, 2010

I've got a 750 GB RAID-1 array on my Snow Leopard Mac Pro that is running dangerously low on inodes. It only has 144,000 files on it but look what df -i claims: Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/disk13 1464477312 1394933032 69544280 96% 174366627 8693035 95% /Volumes/RAID-1 750

It claims 174 MILLION inodes are used with only 8.6 million to go.

Will Snow Leopard automatically add more inodes?

OS X :: Apps Running Faster In Snow Leopard?

Aug 31, 2009

Last night I installed the new Snow Leopard hoping to see an improvement in some of the programs I use (Photoshop, LR, Flash, AE etc�) but I don�t think any of these programs other than Safari, Finder and all those built-in applications in OSX benefited from this new 64-bit code, at least I haven�t seen any improvements in fact I went and checked the Activity Monitor and I don�t see the 64-bit in any of these programs.

Was this supposed to benefit all programs speed wise or the program itself should be 64-bit compatible?

OS X :: Networking Mac And Pc Running Snow Leopard And Vista Respectively

Oct 13, 2009

i just bought my first mac three weeks ago (woohoo!) after being a long time pc user. so far i can say that i'm enjoying my iMac and learning a lot of new things. i've been lurking on this forum for a while and most of my questions have been asked and answered by other members. this is my first post and i can't seem to find an answer in this forum or anywhere for that matter.

as i've mentioned, i purchased an iMAC about three weeks ago. it came pre-installed with leopard and a snow leopard software to upgrade -- which i did. i still have my laptop running with vista and i would like to network them together. i've been researching how to do this but most of the how-to's out there are for leopard or tiger OS and xp -- where i get stuck when i have to click on 'windows sharing' box since snow leopard doesn't have that option. can someone give me a step-by-step procedure on how to network both of my computers. i would like to mention that i have a home network and both computers are connected to the internet wirelessly. also, i would like for my entire computer to share, and not just specific folders.

Computer info: MacBook Pro 15.4/2.8/2X2GB/500/SD; 2009, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8, MATSHITA DVD-R   UJ-868

I have used CD's and DVD's before on this computer with this OS, without any problems

Now:all CD's show up as untitled, show as having no content, and are listed with burn symbolCommercial DVD worksDVD's made by professional videographers (school event) are ejected

All of the above are readily read and DVD's played, title and content, by my old PowerBook G4, running 10.3.9 

I seldom use CD's or DVD's, so do not know how long this problem has existed, or what may have precipitated the problem.

Laptops :: MacBook Running Leopard/snow Won't Boot?

Feb 2, 2010

I have a MacBook 13" 2.0 GHz with 1 GB Ram and a 80GB harddrive 2006 model. This machine recognizes all ram, DVD, Hard Drive and ng usb etc. seems to work perfectly. BUT, it will only startup if I HOLD the PowerButton down all the way down until I see the the Apple Logo. If I just hit the powerbutton and go, it will t reboot over and over and over. I have bought new ram, nope. I tried a different HD, nope. I disconnected the DVD, nope. It simply won't boot properly. Once I HOLD down the power button to get it running it works fine, sees the camera, BT, WIFI, clock is at right time, all keys on KB work, and usb peripherials. I cannot reset the pram or vram at all, even while holding the power button down to boot. If I just hit the button and quickly press Command option p r it just reboots like always. Does anyone have any ideas??? I'm at a loss as it works fine once booted. While holding the power button to boot it I see my front led flashing and then hear the several beeps and it starts up just fine.

I have pulled the battery, removed the PSU, held the power button for a whole minute battery or power and let it sit overnight like this but nada, still does this.

Software :: Snow Leopard Restarted While Running Photoshop?

Aug 30, 2009

I'm new to this forum, mostly because I've had such ease of use with macs over the years that I've had to search support forums. But with Snow Leopard less than 24 hours old, I've had my system "crash" 3 seperate times.

While running Photoshop CS2, the system will lock up. After a few seconds the system moves to a solid blue screen and then restarts the OS. It's almost like all programs running, including Finder are forced quit. There is "bong" over the system starting up or anything.

To clarify, I'm running a brand Mac Mini, 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. At the time of the crash I had nothing more than iTunes and PS CS2 running. During each crash I was doing simple tasks, a color selection, opening an effects panel and opening a very small smart object.

Also to note, I downloaded Safari 4 months ago when it was still in beta, and had no problems. The Safari that comes packaged with Snow Leopard is extremly sluggish and has forced me to use FireFox.

Software :: Snow Leopard Running Damn Slow?

Feb 17, 2010

i bought a macbook pro 13' a month ago and am running snow leopard. This has been very frustrating as the computer is very very slow... can't scroll between firefox tabs, applications as word, iphoto and others take eternal time to open and i always get the frustrating color spinning wheel...

I've read that deleting the /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.audio.coreaudiod.plist file would solve the problem. I did so and the computer was running fine until a few days ago... the spinning wheel is back and i'm loosing my nerve.

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: IMac 3.06 GHz With 12GB Of RAM Running Very Slow

Feb 1, 2012

My late 2010 iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 12gb of ram is running very slow. It takes a very long for the computer to boot with the desktop taking ages to fully load. Applications are also taking an unholy amount of time to load with the spinning wheel always appearing through out use, and they often crash or don't respond and close during use. I'm talking applications like Word taking 3 minutes to load and getting the spinning wheel when font size is tried to be changed and crashing and closing if a large volume of text is attempted to be pasted into a document.The computer is also failing to shut down properly just staying on a blue screen. I recently wiped and completed a fresh install however the issues came back.

MacBook Pro :: Das Keyboard Not Recognized Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8

Apr 23, 2012

I've just got the Das Keyboard Ultimate Model S for my 2009 MacBook Pro, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I'm using the USB port to connect the keyboard, and the first time I plugged it in, the computer asked me to hit the first key to the right side of the left Shift key, which is pretty standard whenever a new keyboard is plugged into the Mac. It recognized it as a European ISO standard, which it is.

However since then my Mac no longer recognizes it as that kind of keyboard. When I go into the "Show Keyboard Viewer", the keyboard is recognized as a US Standard layout, and an Apple keyboard as well (meaning it doesn't "see" the numpad). You can see it's a US standard keyboard, as the Enter key is horizontal, and the left Shift key is wider. (the rest of the layout is Danish, which shouldn't matter in this case).

How do I tell my Mac that this isn't the correct keyboard? I've resetted the SMC, PRAM and NVRAM. I've tried to find and delete the file "com.apple.keyboardtype.plist" in my Library -> Preferences folder, but for some reason I don't have that file. I've plugged the keyboard into my iMac, running the same OS, and here the keyboard is recognized correctly, so it's not the keyboard that's faulty.

OS X :: Attempted To Reset The PRAM On Macpro Running Snow Leopard?

Sep 11, 2009

I attempted to reset the PRAM on my macpro running snow leopard this morning, by rebooting and holding cmd-option-p-r until the apple logo appeared, at which point I released and then machine then rebooted a second time. I went back to the computer about an hour later and it was stuck on the apple logo screen, with no sounds coming from the CPU. I did a hard reboot by holding down the power key and it started up fine. I've never reset the pram before and so I didn't know what I should expect as far as the process being successful, but after an hour stuck on the apple logo I figured it got stuck on something.

IMac :: System Freezes And Running Very Slow With Snow Leopard

Mar 25, 2010

I have a 20" iMac mid 2007 2.4Ghz, 320GB, 2Gb machine running Snow Leopard. Today I turned it on and it was running fine. But around three hours of using it suddenly froze. I had to force the turn off using the power button. When i turned it back on it took about 4 mins to get to the login screen. Once I logged in the spinning wheel came up and the only think that loaded was the Spotlight sign. This kept happening until about the third time of turning it off and on. When it finally completed login. But it is now extremely slow and it just about freezes when I open more than one application.
