OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Going Out Of Business- Imac Reset?
Jun 21, 2012
I have about 20 imacs that we are doing a restore on.. my problem is that I have only 2 copies of the Applications DVD and System DVDs... I'd like to bundle a copy of each with each computer when I resell them.. but the Applications DVD is 4.75gb and is too big to fit on a standard DVD using Disk Copy. Is this software online available for download? Or is there a way to make copies of the System and Applications DVDs?

I am selling my 2 year old iMac. It came installed with Leopard 10.5, and I have the original DVD's. I recently (about a month ago), upgraded it to Snow Leopard. I was looking at this site: [URL] To get some ideas on how I can completely reset the system, to almost a factory install. Would I have to follow the steps to a full system install of Leopard, and then install Snow Leopard upgrade? Or can I use the Snow Leopard disk, to directly install that version as the clean install? At the end of the process, I would love to leave the system as "new" as possible.

My boys have recently altered their profile to the point that I simply need to start from scratch and reset or delete it all together. How do I go about fixing their profile/ resetting or deleting it to start over. None of their icons show up, someone has moved the My applications folder, Documents, and Downloads folders onto the dock and I am unable to change or remove them. We are currently running on Snow Leopard.

I took my laptop in to a shop to have a new hard drive installed and the guy in the shop upgraded me to Snow Leopard. I then tried to use migration assistant to get my files back off an external HD and it's telling me my password and/or user name is incorrect. Is it possible the guy in the shop changed it? Is there a generic password when you reinstall things? Or do I need to restart my Macbook using the old Leopard disk?

Over the years my finder windows have been set to different colors, font sizes and so on. When I make a change I select the make default box in the show view options, but they never default except for that one finder window. I have erased com.apple.finder.plist and just for fun the com.apple.sidebarlists.plist but can not get the finder to go to a true default. Is there another plist that I am missing?

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.

Every time I hit the print button on my Mac (I have an HP PSC 1210 all-in-one printer) the document prints at 10%. I know, I have to go into page set up and when i do that, the scale is always at 10% so I have to change the scale to 100%.why is it not automatically set at 100% anymore? And how can I make the print scale default to 100% so I don't have to go into page set up everytime I want to print?

I would like to wipe my MacBook Core 2 Duo, currently running 10.5.8 I just recieved the Snow Leopard 10.6 disk, before I upgrade, I want to wipe this laptop completely as if it were new. Will this be an option during the install of 10.6 or do I have to go about it another way? Here is the catch, I recently moved, and misplaced the CD's the MacBook originally came with. So all I have is the computer and the Snow Leopard 10.6 cd.

I have a Snow Leopard Install Disk for the 13-inch Macbook Pro model.I also have a 21-inch iMac. I have OS X Lion installed on both. I have Snow Leopard installed as a partition on my Macbook Pro, which I installed via the install disk. I want to do the same thing for my iMac but I am unable due to (seemingly) my install disk is for a Macbook Pro and not for an iMac.

My mom bought me a late 2009 white Macbook three weeks ago. It was working fine the first few days until I decided to purchase Lion and then two days later it crashed and I had to erase the hard drive and reinstall everything. It took me about a day to fix and reinstall everything, but this time I didn't install Lion. A week later my computer crashed again and I tried to erase the hard drive again and re install Snow Leopard, but this time nothing will install. I'm trying to avoid the hour drive to the closests Apple Store, so if anybody knows how I could fix this it would be great! I'm desperate at this point :/
