I thought it might be useful to compile a list of apps we know won't work on Leopard (in case there are any mission-critical apps people need that won't work) and details of when updates are due (if known). The list so far is on MacRumors Guides here. add further updates there as well as posting in the thread (preferably if you have confirmed directly with the developer regarding compatibility and an expected fix date, if any).
I want to upgrade to Snow Leopard from Tiger 10.4.11. But I want to know which of the apps I have will work on Leopard to be sure that I want to upgrade. Which of these apps work on Snow Leopard? means I need this app to work in order for me to upgrade, so tell me if these apps with this mark don't work on Snow Leopard!
*1. 1password *2. Adobe Media Player, photoshop CS4, Premier Pro CS4 (works) *3. AIM 4. ClamXav (works) 5. DisApeAr *6. Divx PLayer *7. Dot.Tunes, Dot.Tunes HookUp 8. Flip4Mac (works) *9.

Will Elements 8 work on Snow leopard and where can I find one? Yes, I have looked in the stores and yes I can down load, but I want something I can touch.
I always used Hotspot Shield to watch American TV shows on the internet from Canada as it blocks my IP address. Ever since installing Snow Leopard Hotspot Shield freezes my internet whenever I try to connect with it.
A few days ago I upgraded my MacBook system to 10.6.8 and afterwards when restarting the computer the screen became blue. Nothing happened and I tried to re-restart it. After this almost no applications are working including VLC-player, appstore, Mail, systemupdate, iTunes, skype etc. Games like the sims 3 are not working either despite the fact that I have tried to uninstall and then reinstall these games and programmes.
My WiFi on Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro is constantly dropping. I went to the Genius Bar about the problem and was told to reinstall OS X, which I did, and now, it just happens more often! The only way to get it to reconnect is to turn the airport on and off. Or, when I select my network, it asks for the password, which it was told to remember.
when i was running leopard perian and flip4mac and divx all ran great but now that i am using QuickTime 10 these plugins don't work all that well. so what are some good plugins?
Ever since I installed Leopard 3 months ago, I have to manually run Software Update. I am running as a non-Admin, but it seems like it should still Auto Update. Any ideas why its not?
Over on MacThemes, I found Rion's KISSme theme, which I installed, but wasn't really a fan of. So I deleted the SArtFile and Extras files and put the defaults back. However, the titlebar has just done dim and semi-transparent.
I read here that scan software for the HP OfficeJet 4215 under OS 10.5 was being tested and almost ready for release. That was in October, 2009. I can't find it anywhere. The HP download site says that the scanner function of the 4215 is not supported under 10.5. Does anyone have suggeestions on how I can get the scanner to work? Everything I try says, "No Image Capture Device found."

My Safari is buggy. When I open the Safari AP no windows open. When I go to File>New Window the following window opens and then Safari crashes every time. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make Safari work again?

I have a Mac OS-X and have had it for a year. I have 3 new CD-ROM games that say specifically for Mac OS or PC that are rejected completely when I insert them. Other DVD movies will work fine so I know the problem is not with the super-drive itself. They are new games so are not scratched or dirty.
When trying to install a fresh copy of the OS what key/key-combination would you hold down after inserting the (Leopard) disk, if the keyboard isn't an Apple one? Holding down the C-key doesn't work.
I used the setup assistant and migrated my macbook over to a new IMac. Everything A-Ok except Adobe (of course!) and Time Machine.I started a backup and it ran for over 24 hours. Seems to just hang. The back up is "In Progress".I tried to delete it to start fresh but Time Machine simply locks up.
For the record I use Setup Assistant on the Migration. Running current lion, I updated after migration. I failed to mention that ITunes is not working, checking discussion board for that now.
bbc iplayer does not work, using the latest player, no lists of downloaded programmes and all the other options are blank just downloaded latest adobe air, still the same problems
I have an old CanoScan LIDE N670U scanner which worked fine on a G5 iMac in Tiger (through Photoshop 7). I now have Leopard on a G4 Powerbook and cannot get the scanner to work through Photoshop CS. This is what I've tried : Downloaded the CanoScan Toolbox for Mac OS X - this launches VISE which begins the installation then tells me it has failed because "You do not have enough access privileges". I'm doing this in my admin account! Same thing happened after restarting Mac and redownloading the software.Downloaded the CanoScan driver for Mac OS X (the latest version - 7.0.1) which extracted to a folder of plugins etc, and an installer. Running the installer produced two error messages (regarding a .shlb file and a Button Manager) but completed and has installed the driver into Photoshop CS > Plugins > Import / Export.When I run Photoshop CS, the CanoScan appears to be there in the Import menu, but when I select it I get an error message saying the necessary file is missing or damaged, please reinstall driver, driver window will be closed. I've tried all this a few times with the same result each time.
I urgently need to get some scanning done this weekend, please help!
Extra info - I found a backup of the CanoScan Toolbox 4.1 which I copied over into my Applications folder. The original installer log says there should also be a file Macintosh HD:Library:CFMSupport:pafcv2_carb.lib which unfortunately I cannot replicate without doing the installation (see above). However I'm still getting the same error in Photoshop. And launching the Toolbox doesn't help either - the interface is there but it won't select any program to link to. The driver in the Toolbox appears to be exactly the same as the driver I downloaded separately and installed into Photoshop CS.

I own an older version of Office for Mac. Clicking word, it says version X Clicking Office it says version X. It works fine with tiger. If I upgrade to leopard, will it still work? I'd rather not to have to buy the newest 2008 version.
I have a 15" Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 and I tried to install Leopard today (clean install) after restart and cd loading it brought the screen up to leopard with the space wallpaper and everything but then it said "Leopard can not be installed on this computer" so I shut down by holding down power button (there were no other options & cd wouldn't eject) when it turned back on I eject the CD and it starts up to my old wallpaper and it was back to Tiger again (Wheww!) but when it starts up now, the blinking "?"/Finder Face box blinks like 2x (like it can't find the OS) but it resumes to normal startup, everything is running fine and I was just concerned if I should be worried about this?
My macbookpro was prepared and partitioned by an Apple authorized reseller and I got it with one user installed and hdisk partioned with bootcamp and windows on one partition.I decided to use migration assistant to move my previous account from an ibook to the new macbook.Everything went flawlessly but when I am working with the new account I cannot have the trackpad working at all: no scrolling, no pinching, no rotating, ecc
