OS X :: Installing Rosetta/Will It Slow Down My 13" MacBook Pro?
Jul 12, 2010
Today I downloaded Jin which is a program for chess. Upon installation I was told that "Rosetta" needed to be installed.
1- What exactly is Rosetta?
2- Will Installing it slow down my Laptop?
3- Is it a good idea to install it?

I was using Rosetta Stone without a problem for over a month. Now when i try to start it up it freezes with the screen saying "Installing Updates". In the Console I get this message
"Rosetta Stone[73642] Warning once: This application, or a library it uses, is using
NSQuickDrawView, which has been deprecated. Apps should cease use of QuickDraw and move to Quartz."
I tried to repair permissions but it changed nothing.

On my MacBookPro, 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, 1.5 GB RAM, Mac OS X 10.4.11, all rosetta emulated applications as Apple Works 6, Toast 6, Microsoft Office 2004, PhotoshopElements 3 and so on, suddenly have stopped working. A short flash of the program symbols ist all I get when I try starting one of them. Everything has been fine for the last three years!Before that, I noticed that I could not install the Security Update 2008-007 Intel, no matter if by software update or manually (for the download version I get only an error notice that the checksum failed, when I try to activate the .dmg). Other Apple software updates were installed without any problems.How can I repair or reinstall Rosetta (obviously has to do with that, or not?) without a complete reinstall of Mac OS X 10.4.???

Mac started to run slow every now and then, updated to yosemite and now getting worse, slow to open programmes like iPhoto (getting jammed when using), websites and switching between the two. Get a coloured wheel often. More worryingly recently when waking from sleep, the left half of my screen is distorted like an old unturned TV!!

After installing OS X Lion on my Imac (middle 2007)
start up is very slow. Screen stays white with grey progress bar very slow to complete.
Then, after maybe 15 minutes, the desk screen appears and the Imac seems to work normally. I had upgraded the RAM to 3 Go before installing OS X Lion.

I have a hard time with skype conversation and rosetta stone speech recognition. Since I started using Rosetta Stone 3.4.5, People i'm talking with on skype complains that they don't hear me well, everything was fine untill I installed this software. The microphone doesn't emit as much volume as it should be and I believe rosetta stone is responsible for the differences in output volume.Â
I tested the microphone in garage band and I don't hear my voice normaly unless I start shouting out loud.Â
Or maybe the built-in microphone is too old and it's not working as good as it was before ?Â

OK lame fear - but I fear Quicken will NOT work on Snow leopard (please this is a not I hate quicken thread so don't ask why I cling to it) -
However recently I saw some random text saying that it will work but Rosetta must be installed with 10.6 - I thought Rosetta was just a natural part of the OS 10.5 and is 'just there'- now it is an option? ???
First question does 10.6 support really support Rosetta?
Second question: does anyone know how this will be installed on a fresh 10.6 install (going to buy a New HD just for this install in Sept)?

After the WWDC keynote where Apple officially put PPC out to pasture, I began wondering what they would do about PPC software and applications. Specifically, if Apple is now officially supporting only Intel machines with 10.6, would it abandon Rosetta as well, thus requiring all 10.6 users to abandon apps that are not universal binary/Intel only apps?
This becomes an issue for a significant segment of the user base (including me) who still use MS Office for Mac 2004 and do not want to upgrade to 2008 for a variety of reasons including use of macros, VBA, cost, UI preference, etc. If Apple abandons Rosetta, I either have to upgrade to Office 2008 or I cannot install 10.6.

is there a way to check out if my apps need Rosetta?
With the upcoming release of Snow Leopard I'd like to be sure I still need Rosetta before upgrading my machines.

Now that Macs are starting to come with 64-bit kernal enabled by default (new 2010 Mac Pro, Mac Mini Server) how does that affect running applications that need Rosetta, such as MS Office 2004?

I use Rosetta Stone v2 in my macbook laptop. This software requires that the language cd be inserted in the optical drive. Without the cd inserted if will not work (anti piracy?) . My macbook optical drive recently broke. It ejects everything that is inserted. Question: Is there to install the language files in the macbook (disk image?) so that Rosetta Stone thinks that the cd is inserted? I tried to copy the files into a flash drive but got a dialog box saying that some files could not by copied. I rarely use the optical drive and don't want to repair/replace it just for this program.

I recently installed Final Cut Pro v5.1.4 on my intel MacBook Pro but when I clicked on the mpkg file to install I was given a message telling me that Rosetta needs to be installed to open the Final Cut Pro.mpkg file.
I downloaded and installed Rosetta then Final Cut Pro v5.1.4. What is bugging me is that if Final Cut Pro v5.1.4 is now intel supported why did it ask me to install Rosetta to open the Final Cut Pro.mpkg file? When I use Final Cut Pro v5.1.4 does it still run under PPC emulation through Rosetta even though I have read that it is now intel supported?
I would buy the Final Cut Studio 7 but I am a bit short of cash at the moment and was needing videos edited for a friend.

This is the 1st time i got a Mac , i bought a black Macbook 2.4GHz some days ago .
I installed Windows Vista Ultimate using Boot Camp , and all went smoothly .
Only 1 prob is when restarting , i have to wait too long for the Windows to log on , i think about 1min with the black screen.
And if i want to boot in Mac OS , i have to push down the D button or the Alt, it takes quite a long time too .
So do you guys have any solution to this problem ? I want to get rid of the waiting time, way too much.
And do you know how to make my Macbook jump right in the choosing section when it starts ? ( so that i dont have to push down any button when it starts )

I need to use Rosetta in iMovie for my Chroma Key plugin from Cf/x to work, but when I go to Get info, there is no box I can check for Rosetta, in fact, I can't seem to find anything about Rosetta on my computer. I need Chroma Key for a video this weekend.

I have a lot of important Data from my old Power Mac (Power Mac 7300/180) that I would like to be able to run using Rosetta. The major Applications I would like to run are MacWrite Pro & Microsoft Works Vers. #4.0c. My old Power Mac was running OS 9.1 I have the original install Floppies for MacWrite & Microsoft Works. (they would have to be copied unto a CD for me to be able to install them on my Intel Mac. (no floppy drive on the Intel Mac)
Assuming I could get copies of the old Applications on a CD & then install them on my Intel Mac would they run under Rosetta & be able to open my old Data files? I am definitely not well informed about the capabilities of Rosetta. I installed Rosetta on my Intel Mac when I upgraded to Snow Leopard.

When I open RS, it says "error 1117, and error has occurred in the speech component" and then says something about restarting the program.
Error 1117 apparently means that the program won't communicate with my computer, even though I don't operate a personal firewall. It can't detect the USB headset, so the headset cannot be used.
I've looked all over the place for the answer, but there's only a solution for PC users. What can I do about this?

I was wondering if anybody had any info / knowledge on the Rosetta Stone language packages, having just watched Family Guy's moustache episode I feel compelled to learn Italian.
Anyone have any experience with Rosetta Stone Italian packages?
p.s. I am obviously joking about the Family Guy part - although youtube the clip -
oh and why I am here, how come none of my posts include the image I uploaded?
