I went to try it out and i couldnt seem to do anything with it, youtube shuts off safari (works if java is turned on but i cant watch videos anyway), all sites seem disproportioned and assorted oddly.
Could I upgrade it to Leopard from my leopard CD that came with my 13'' uni (which was stolen)?
Is the price too steep? I dont need a heavy duty machine, just something that will run fine.
I have a iBook G4 that is currently running OS X Ver 10.3.2. It has an 800Mhz Power PC processor with 256MB of RAM.Does anyone know if I can upgrade from 10.3.2 to Tiger or Leopard?
I have found disks that say "media only" for really cheap and I realize those aren't licenses but since the eMac has Tiger wouldn't it already have an OSX license? Links to products would be nice if possible.
I've recently acquired an iMac and wanted to upgrade to Lion, however I believe I need to upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard first - which could prove to end up costing a fortune! I've read recently that Apple are offering the upgrade to Snow Leopard free of charge for MobileMe users, however when I've followed a link to fill in a request form, this just takes me to the Find My Phone feature on iCloud.
They have not the latest generation but the prior Intel generation -- that shipped with Leopard.
Being the family IT guy, last time I was in town I purchased the Snow Leopard retail DVD family pack upgrade and upgraded my parents machines to Snow Leopard. I couldn't upgrade my brother's mini because he had it away at school.
Now he is back at my parents house (as am I) and I was all set to upgrade his machine to Snow Leopard but I can't find the retail install disk I purchased.
However, I do have the Snow Leopard Mac Mini OSX install DVD that shipped with my recently purchased (latest generation) Mac Mini.
Question -- does anyone know if I could use this latest generation Snow Leopard Mac Mini system install DVD (the one that shipped with my mac Mini) to upgrade my brother's previous generation mac mini running Leopard to snow leopard.
Not looking to do a clean install but rather the upgrade.
Anyhow ever tried this? I obviously don't want to upgrade his previous generation machine with drivers, etc. for my latest generation --- rather JUST get his leopard upgraded to snow leopard.
I have mac mini (early 2009) running leopard and want to upgrade to snow leopard. I've bought a disk from a local store and when I try to install I get as far as 45 minutes to go when the installer reboots the computer and says it will continue to install after reboot. So it reboots kicks the disk out and reboots back into Leopard. The Apple site says it is probably a bad disk, so I got another one, still does the same. Apple also says it might be the dvd drive, I have no other issues with the drive, it installs the original leopard disks without problem, it reads video dvd's without problem, it verifies the snow disk as perfect.
I have read on apple news that apple is offering free software upgrade for leopard to snow leopard.. is that true? I followed their link and nothing is available?
I want the Mail Exchange Server support in Snow Leopard. If I buy a new MacBook today shipped with Leopard, can I get the upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard for free? (No, right?) When will SL be released? And how long will it take to have SL shipped with MacBook after that?
... long time reader, first time poster!! So I'm doing it. I'm switching from PC to Mac. I've been waiting for a while now and the new MacBook Pro's have convinced me. I'm buying the 13 inch this week.
However I'm slightly worried about the upgrade to Snow Leopard in September.
My question is if I buy a new MacBook Pro this week and upgrade from the current version of Leopard to Snow Leopard will it be the EXACT same as the version of Snow Leopard that ships with new MacBooks after September?
Is the upgrade just the same as the full software version available post September? Does the upgrade it just detect if you have the previous software and installs as if it were the full? Or does it just "patch" things depending on what's different from previous versions?
I can wait till after Snow Leopard is released in September 09 if it is different to Leopard upgraded to Snow Leopard.
I have had a MacBook Pro for about 6 months. Running Leopard 10.5.8. It functions great and I have had had rare few problems. I have a new copy of Snow Leopard on my shelf. I seem to see a lot more post of problems with Snow Leopard than with my 10.5.8 Leopard.
Is there a good reason I should upgrade to snow leopard?
I have an iMac with Mac OSX 10.6.8 and 2.4 GH2 Intel Core 2 Duo processor.I want to upgrade to Lion so that I can use iCloud to share documents with my iPad.Do I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard first or can I upgrade directly to Lion?
I'm currently using a MBP 13 inch and am running Leopard on it.
I just bought a copy of snow leopard today but i don't know if I should do a direct upgrade from leopard to snow leopard, or wipe my MBP and do a fresh install so i have snow leopard on a clean slate.
Have any of you tried the second option before? Or do any of you have advice on which path I should take?
I am curious about the system requirement of Snow Leopard. Since the performance and speed are better on SL, I think Snow Leopard will consume a little bit more resource of our macs., although I know Snow Leopard is just only the refinement of the software.
So, my question is that WILL YOU UPGRADE YOUR RAM OF YOUR MAC?
I've just bought 10.5 (MB021Z/A) on ebay and tried to upgrade the system on my Powerbook 12" 867mhz, 640 mb ram but everytime i put the disk in , it 's rejected everytime. Eventhough after I deleted some files and currently my hard drive has approx. 12 gb available. is it something wrong with the disk? I tried with other dvd disks (movies) and the drive 's working fine. The seller told me I have to buy and get copy from another seller before he could refund my money. is it right? (I guess he did not trust me to tell him his disk is no good!!!).
Info: Power book 12" 867mhz 640mb ram, Mac OS X (10.5.6)
I was told by the local apple store that I could up grade to Snow Leopard. Is that right? and how? I am using MacBook Pro with only Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a), what is the name of this modal? Shall I up grade to Leopard first is my os is not yet? then up grade to snow leopard?How many versions of Snow leopard?
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?
after going to the apple store, a store tech said they no longer had tiger for ppc emacs.. and to go to ebay that they had plenty.
well i cant seem to find tiger 10.4 but i have found leopard.
i know there is no difference between the ppc and the intel as both versions come on the disk but my question is is there a difference between the macbook and the emac ver.
this is the version i found.. for macbook Mac OS Leopard version 10.5.4 AHT version 3A152 Disk version: 1.2 2Z691-6311-A
Will this work in a emac its a restore disk so im thinking it should..
Will there be such a thing as a Snow leopard upgrade with iLife and iWork 09? If not what is the cheapest to do: Buy Mac Box Set as normal or buy each separately with the Snow Leopard upgrade for $29?
