I really want Pivot. But I have a Mac. So I downloaded Darwine for my PowerPc based Mac. It said I needed X11. I searched the internet for free downloads. I got one. I'm now worried that if I install X11, I may accidentally reinstall the whole computer and potentially lose all my files/apps. Will I reinstall my computer and lose files/apps if I install X11?

but i can�t find a version for mac.... do anyone know where to download pivot for mac?? (i don�t care about the version).
I am trying to use darwine to run an exe, but am running into a problem. I click the exe and it loads up with darwine, however it is an exe that doesn't just run, but needs to be installed. When I try to click the installer location, it doesn't let me click install. I run vmware, and can install it with that, however, I'm trying to make it simple for a friend on a mac to run 1 silly program that she needs.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having a hell of a time trying to run Darwine on this ol' eMac. I installed Xcode so that I could use MacPorts to install Freetype because it seems to be required for Darwine. So, every time I attempt to run a program, it goes through its font checks, and afterward, it tells me the following:

I would like to use the Notepad++ on my new Mac, I found out (after a lot og Googling) that I need and Mac version of the Wine - the Darwine to be able to run it. So I got the 1.1.7 version of the Darwin form HERE After the installation I have the Darwine folder inside the Applications and it contains:
- Sample WineLib Applications
- Wine.Bundle
- WineHelper
Afterwards I got the Notepad++ from HERE. I downloaded the executable file (npp.5.1.3.Installer.exe) Now - my understand it about how to run the Notepad++ correctly is following:
1) Run the Wine.Bundle
2) Click "Choose the application"
3) Do so
- But just I can not choose the "npp.5.1.3.Installer.exe".
- If I just run the npp.5.1.3.Installer.exe direcly via clickung on it - it crashes
- If I try to run the WineHelper - it also crashes ....
I am trying to run Darwine 0.9.27 on my Mac (OSX 10.5.6) for emulation purposes, however it does not work. I downloaded X11 2.3.2.1 from the Xquartz project to make sure I was up to date with X11, however that did not solve the problem. For example, here is the error I get when I try and run Knytt, a compact, free Windows game: err:module:attach_process_dlls "gdi32.dll" failed to initialize, aborting err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\Users\Banjaloupe\Games\Knytt\Knytt.exe" failed, status c0000005
I think the problem is with X11, since I also cannot run GIMPshop, which I know needs X11. However, I have no experience at all using X11 in the first place, which is why I am quite stumped. Of course, the real issue could be with Darwine, or some other incompatibility I'm missing.
im trying to run kai photo soap which is an old windows/classic mac program from an install CD that i have.
When i insert the install CD into my macbook, the ".exe" windows files does not show up....thus preventing me from trying to use Darwine to run the ".exe" set up...
the only files that show up on the CD are the classic mac install files..
Do any games downloaded from yoyogames [URL] work without a single bug? All the games I donwloaded so far say "There was an error running the program, check in Wine log". The files I download are .exe .
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis question is MOSTLY for those with a new 27" i Mac running Snow Leopard.
As I've already received the Apple VESA adapter plate to allow mounting to a wall mounted extension arm - allowing the i Mac to "float" above the desktop.
I see some mounts allow the screen to be rotated 90 degrees, which lets the user see long spreadsheets and web pages and such.
Does the ATI driver (from Apple) have the option to run the display in "pivot" or 90 degrees rotated option?
(This has been very common in both nVidia and ATI graphics cards for years.)
I'm awaiting my i7 quad, and checking our old G5 have discovered that this is not available on that machine with Tiger.
When I go to "System Preferences" / "Display" / "preferences" I just get a box saying "The Geometry tab of Display preferences is hidden because this display does not have geometry controls."
Would someone with a C2D 27" please check if their i Mac has this option?
I upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger using the Leopard to Snow Leopard upgrade and I would like to delete the old Tiger OS from my computer.
How do I do this?
I have an iMac g4 800mhz, 768 mb of ram 40 gb internal HD and 250 gb external HD. I plan on upgrading to Tiger this wednesday. Also, my mac has been a bit quirky over the last year or so. The internal HD seems to almost spin constantly. It spins and spins....spins down, then right back up again. Weird. Once in a while the apps act strange as well. So, I plan on doing a clean install of Tiger. Everything is backed up on the external HD.
My question is, does anybody know how Tiger will run on my system? Will doing a clean install eliminate these "quirks"? And finally, will quicktime 7 finally run smooth with the upgrade? Right now, Quicktime isn't as smooth as it used to be with Quicktime 6.
So i finally got around to upgrading a couple of my powerbook g4's. Im upgrading a powerbook g4 from tiger to leopard. My question is how can i do a full reformat (not the archive install) and keep all the programs i have on it like ms office and adobe?

My computer science professor, who also uses tiger (on an older machine than mine), has a much better DVD player that he uses for class.
His has a tracking bar (which the dvd player i have does not) and a lot of other things I'd like. So how do you get a better DVD player for Tiger?

I am wanting to revert back to Tiger from Leopard. What is the best way to accomplish this safely? I use iCal extensively and Apple really messed with it. The added features in Leopard do not add enough real functionality to make me willing to lose solid features.

I am running Tiger now but it slows down if I fire up more than 5 apps at the same time. I was thinking Panther would run better. All I do is internet, email, word processing, spreadsheets, listening to music and playing old games.

I got a G4 iMac with a 1ghz powerPC and 512MB ram for Christmas - it came with Leopard.
It's not horrible slow but you can tell it's trudging along quite choppily at times (when I try to load anything in flash or youtube it can't handle it).
Would I be better off going to Tiger? I've never used Tiger before - would my experience on Tiger be horrible compared to Leopard?
Has anyone noticed the new Mail.app icon in Tiger? I actually prefer the old version!
