OS X :: Using 4GB Memory Limit With Snow Leopard?
Jul 8, 2009i have a mac book pro ( 15 inch, 2.4ghz, late 08)
the memory limit is 4 GB. Is this an OS limit which will be blown away with snow leopard, or is it a hardware limit, which will remain regardless of 64bit OS?
other MBPs have 6 or 8GB limits, which makes me think they may be hardware related

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Mail App Limit On Displayed Folders?
Feb 29, 2012We have a user with a large number of folders of saved mail stored locally (on my mac). I haven't counted the number of folders in the list in Mail, but the last 6, alphabetically, do not display in the list of folders. I can, by going into ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes (I think it's in Mailboxes) see the missing folders and even open the messages in them, the folders simply don't display in the Mail app (v4.5).Â
Does anyone know if there is (there appears to be) some limit to the number of folders Mail can display? If so, is there some workaround to get it to display them so the user can access his mail through Mail app? why these particular folders are not showing up.Â
It seems like it must be a limit issue since it's not chronological (i.e., they aren't the most recent folders created) but alphabetical (they would, if displayed, be the last 6 folders in the list).

OS X :: Snow Leopard Drag And Drop Broken (85 Object Limit)?
Jul 12, 2010Normally consider myself quite able to troubleshoot my own problems, but I can't for the life of me figure out what to do here, and can't seem to find many others who have the same problem. The drag-and-drop function in Snow Leopard appears to be either broken or deliberately crippled. My work sees me having to move a lot of files from folder to folder, and I've discovered that, as of fairly recently, I can no longer drag-and-drop more than 85 objects from one folder to another. Up to 85, everything works just fine -- but if I select 86, upon dragging I get an "X-ed out" icon, like the "no smoking" or "no parking" circle with a line through it.
I'm not quite sure what to do about this, but would be very curious and appreciative if anyone else has the same issue, or has figured out how to solve it! This, combined with the lack of a "cut" feature in OS X has begun to really impede my workflow.

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Snow Leopard Install Disk Works In IMac But Not In MacBook Pro?
Mar 31, 2012I 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.

Sep 8, 2009My airtunes was randomly breaking when trying to stream to my Airport Express and AppleTV. The dreaded (-15000) unknown error message kept appearing. Through searches here and elsewhere, I found a solution that has worked for me. I have turned off IPv6. System Pref >> Network >>Advanced >> TCP/IP >> Configure IPv6: set it to "off". It was on "Automatically" prior to my change. This switch fixed my problem with the airtunes streaming. My question is: Will this prevent me from fully utilizing anything else that my require IPv6? I'm not familiar with what that might be, or why we even need it. From what I've read, it's likely something needed or utilized on a large network, but at home, it seems unnecessary. Am I missing something or will I regret having to turn it off?

IMac :: Snow Leopard With 512MB RAM?
Sep 22, 2010I have a friend who owns a late 2006 17 inch 1.83GHz (C2D) with 512MB RAM. I was thinking about giving him the upgrade to SL for his birthday (he's running 10.5.8 if I remember correctly). I would give him the full version of course, just in case. But will it work? Or would I be better off just giving him RAM sticks? If so, what DDR2 RAM does that iMac use, and how much can it take?

OS X :: How Much RAM Can I Put In My IMac Running Snow Leopard
Sep 26, 2009I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and one of the questions I'm struggling to find an answer to, is just how much RAM can I put in my iMac? I'm running a 3.06GHz core 2 duo iMac, 2008 (last model, without the new fancy graphics card). And, it currently runs 4Gb of RAM. With all of the Snow Leopard talk of your system running a virtually infinite amount of RAM, how much can I run???
Am I limited in some way by the motherboard in my iMac? Or can I "fill my boots!!"?
I've attached a screenshot of my current system configuration.
OS X :: Imac 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Became Frozen
Apr 14, 2010While using Mail, I got a message that there was an error with Mail and I needed to quit and reboot. When I re-opened mail, it prompted me to set it up and while it was reading the files, it froze. Subsequently, my Imac (OS 10.6.3? Snow Leopard) became frozen, i.e. my whole computer. I shut down using the back button (nothing else worked) and then restarted. I then re-booted using the regular re-start system. I was able to do 2-3 functions (the computer was super slow) and it froze again. After 2-3 repeats of the same procedure, it freezes after being turned off and on using the back button. I updated my software about 3 days ago. There was a major security update in that update. I'm waiting for a professional techy to call me back, but if you have any suggestions on how I should proceed, I'd be most grateful.

Is Snow Leopard Compatible With IMac
Apr 1, 2012I'm trying to upgrade my aging iMac to be as compatible as possible, due to Diablo 3 requiring a minimum OS 10.6.8 to operate. My current specs as below:iMac Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz. 20 Inch. 4GB Ram. 320GB HDD. Nvidia 9400M Graphics Card..Currently running 10.5.8. As previously i tried to upgrade to Lion but it says my computer is unable to process installation, I am not sure if it's because i did not upgrade from Snow Leopard. Am trying to use this current mac as long as possible because i think Apple should be introducing a new generation of iMacs soon this year.

IMac :: Snow Leopard Released On New Hardware?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIMac :: Snow Leopard Loads 64 Bit Kernel
Jul 11, 2009Is there something about the hardware on this iMac that will not let SL run in full 64 bit glory? It loads 64 bit kernel, but did that in Leopard as well. SL loads the 64 bit kernel but not the rest of it... of course holding the 6 and 4 keys results in no joy. So now I suspect it is not just the CPU that must be a 64 bit ready chip but the rest of the hardware must be like wise optimized.
