OS X V10.4 :: Any Way To Upgrade To Lion Directly From Tiger?
May 1, 2012
I have Tiger 10.4.11. I had to reinstall it on my computer. I have an external hard drive that won't read on my computer now because the software is so old. Can I install Lion directly, or do I need to install leopard or snow leopard first?
Info:
MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.4/2.2 GHz), Mac OS X (10.4.11)

I am currently running 10.5.8 and want to upgrade to Lion. Do I need to go through Snow Leopard first? My iMac appears to have the correct spec to run Lion.
I recently split my hard drive using Boot Camp in order to also run Windows. When I upgrade will this affect the Windows side of things? Will I be able to upgrade to Windows 7?
Am I likely to get problems with software such as Sage 50 line 2011, MS Office for Mac, Rosetta Stone, Dreamweaver 8?

For the moment I have my OS back up (10.3.9 )cloned to an ext FW HD. I have a 10.4 install or unpgrade disc (not sure which, nor if the disc is any good and would prefer not to risk screwing up my int.HD). Could I install Tiger directly to my ext.HD, thus being able to use the two systems depending on where I boot from. (if the install works?) Asking this because I'm not sure if I have enough free space on my Int HD (7GB) to do an Install and Archive, where as on my Ext HD I have about 11GB free space on the partition. Then if it all works could I CCC it back to my Int.HD?

I went to BB and bought the upgrade for my MBP running Leopard but I decided I would try to install it on my Tiger running iMac almost possitive it would not work. It however worked and even installed faster (1/3 the time) of my MBP with more Ram and better processor. So it is definitely done

When I attempt to upgrade my Tiger installation on my 24 inch iMac, when I get to the "Select a Destination Drive" screen during the install process, my hard drive doesn't show up.
I have disconnected any external USB drives, and I have repaired my main hard drive. Has any one had any similar problems? Any suggestions?

So I went into an Apple store yesterday to play around with the Iphone 4 and it just so happned the store I was in had the phone in stock. After playing with it for about 20 min I decided to purchase one. I was obviously all excited on my drive home.
Once I get there and plug in my phone into my Macbook I get an error saying my operatin system needs to be version 10.5.8 or higher. I'm currently running 10.4.11. So now I have to update my software which Apple said would cost me $169 (I don't feel like spending that cash so I will be returning the phone today). As far as the antenna problem, I had my 3gs and 4g side by side all night and morning. The 3gs definitely has more bars in almost all locations.
With that said I never had a dropped calls or no service to make a call with either phone. The bars on the 4G fluctuate A LOT more than the 3gs but it still does the job. The build week is 30 on the Iphone4 and when I touch the bottom left corner I do lose 1 to 2 bars right away. This message is in no means trying to bash the iphone4, it's just simply an update for those guys/girls that are still on the fence on purchasing one.

I have a 1.8 GHz G5 PowerPC with 768 MB Ram and 160 GB Hard Drive running OS 10.3.9.Many internet sites don't work well due to incompatability and the computer runs kinda slow.Should I upgrade to Tiger? Would this improve performance on the internet and the overall speed of the computer?

Found Snow Leopart 10.6 in Apple store but requires Leopard 10.5 to be installed first. 10.5 is not listed in Apple store. A response in one forum stated that Snow Leopard 10.6 can be installed directly over Tiger 10.4. Is that correct? If not where can I fine Leopard 10.5?

Now that's it's been out for awhile, and based on people's experiences, if I'm looking to upgrade Tiger to Snow Leopard, should I get the box set or no? I rarely use the "i" suites as it is. Just wondering what might be the best route, since apparently the box set doesn't include anything to do with Leopard.

so i've done a lot of research, and a vast majority of people are saying that if you install the $30 upgrade to snow leopard onto an intel based mac running Tiger, it works!I have two questions regarding this.
Is it true!? because i don't want to waste $30 for nothing Would i be able to run logic 9 after this upgrade?
my only goal is to run logic 9. I have no interest in any of the features that come with leopard or snow leopard

I am helping a friend upgrade a three year old iMac from 10.4 (tiger) to 10.6 (snow leopard), she has purchased all the software 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 upgrade. For some reason she never moved to 10.5 even though she had the DVD. In addition I wanted to have a "clean install". The first thing I did was make a backup of all of her files. Then I booted 10.4 from DVD and used disk utility to erase the hard disk. Next
I booted 10.6 from DVD and selected English as the language, then I get the following error: "Mac OS X can't be installed on this computer. It requires a previous installation of 10.5."
Do we really have to go from 10.4 to 10.5 to 10.6? What a pain in the butt!!! Any ideas on how to skip 10.5? I already erased the hard disk.
Here is a link that recommends a clean install:

I got this iBook a few days ago for my son, and it has been working fine until I decided to upgrade to OSX 10.4. For some reason it freezes during the install. I tried using the original Installation discs that came with the iBook and I get the same thing. STRANGE!!! I was told it was a bad RAM chip, but it only has the onbord chip so I had nothing to replace.
Apple Hardware test passes with flying colors, I have reset the PMU to no avail....Kinda at a loss here. Oh, I have tried booting into Single User mode and installing that way as well...no dice.
