leopard

This is just something I raised up at the LeopardRebirth thread, but let me get into this here because I think this could be a fully-fledged topic on its own... What do you think it would take to optimize, tune, tweak, and potentially bug-fix Leopard for it to raise to Snow Leopard level...

So, as you may know, I sold all my PPC Macs but one, my iMac G4 700MHz. It was running Tiger, but after I heard the LeoRebirth dock issue would soon be fixed, I decided to upgrade to Leopard. The way I used to do this was to boot my iBook G4 (which, by Apple's requirements, supported Leopard)...

Hello everybody, I am new to this forum, and I was suprised to see an active PPC community. But I am wondering, do people here still use PowerMac G3s, G4s and G5s as a daily driver for tasks like webbrowsing/YouTube? How does that still work on a machine like a PowerMac G3 and an older OS like...

Back to ask a question. My email is an icloud.com account. Yesterday, I had it working fine in mail with the server addresses Apple provided on their support website. Today, it stopped working and it rejects my password. Two-factor authentication is off on my account? Anyone have a fix? Thanks...

Welcome, i just bought ibook g4, unfortunally it does not read my dvd with leo on it. i Just thought, will i be able to run leopard installer from hdd that i want it to put on

I'm currently experimenting with different methods for my Leopard install with updates/apps. One thing I'd like to try is modifying the installer itself, so that you can install with the default Leopard installer and use the Setup Assistant. However, I can't figure out how to do this, and the...

Was reading through some stuff today, and I stumbled across a theme called iLeopard. I installed it, and thought it was really cool! Since I've never seen it mentioned on here, I figured I'd share it. This theme basically makes the whole system appearance just like iTunes 7 or 8, with the...

All my PowerPC projects! :) Tiger Sierra Theme Before LeopardRebirth was out, I was making a Sierra theme for personal use. Once LeopardRebirth came out, some people requested a Sierra Theme for Tiger. It wasn't hard to adapt my theme to Tiger, so I did that and released it. Get it on the...

EDIT: Easy Installer Attached to this post is now an AppleScript that can apply the commands below or revert you to the default Leopard appearance. I recommend using this, but I also recommend reading the info below so you know what you're doing and what problems you may run into. EDIT: The...

Hello guys, I just bought an eMac from 2004 and decided to swap out the old HDD and replace it with a "new" one. Because I personally use a Windows-PC, I needed to burn a Leopard-DVD via TransMac. I inserted the DVD and booted the mac by holding down the Option-Key (Alt-Key on my...

Updated Info I've decided to go with @QSDP-User's suggestion, and I will be changing things up a little bit. The OS will have the welcome screen bypassed and updates installed. There will be a Setup app that allows you to set up your speed tweaks. For software, use Software to Get You Started...

What is the best mp3 cd burner for a powermac g4 ? I am currently running mac os 10.5 leopard .

Currently running Tiger on a 12"G4PB 1.5GHz/1.25Gb. TenFourFox is a little slow. In the opinion of those who have tried it, would it be worth moving to Leopard in order to be able to use Roccat? TIA, Stuart.

Hey, guys. I recently found a great deal on an iMac G5. However, it comes without a hard drive, and the seller doesn't have the original OS disc. I've got plenty of HDDs lying around to get storage on it, but no system discs compatible with the machine, so I was wondering if any of you know a...

After looking around for some tips on speeding up Leopard (I just installed it on a 700MHz Mac), I found this really interesting article. With 2 Terminal commands, you can really speed up Leopard. Do this in addition to the other optimizations and you have a really speedy computer. I'm sure...

As my signature states, I have a 700MHz iMac G4, 15 inch. It's currently running Tiger and I'm pretty happy with it. TFF works pretty well with tweaks, and there is some software that supports it. Normally I always prefer Tiger. But in the past month or so I've seen more of the advantages to...

Dear MacRumors Forum Users, I’ve been helping a friend try to fix his iMac which I believe had a dodgy HDD. Machine specs below… OSX 10.5.8 (Leopard) 2.66 GHz Intel "Core 2 Duo" processor 2 GB of RAM (1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM) 320 GB (7200 RPM) HDD NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics The machine...

Okay, will these steps work in order to install OS X on an Apple TV 1 directly onto its internal hard drive? (With an external USB storage device) (I do not have the Apple TV itself, so if I need to input a serial number or something like that I will not be able to continue with that step) Now...

While testing some things, I accidentally lost the WebKit.framework file from my Power Mac G5 (I know, I should've backed up/should've been more careful. Sorry). I've tried the file from the 10.5.8 Combo update, and all of my WebKit applications (like Mail) crash on startup. I assume the version...

This one I am excited for, as it works pretty well. The same guy who brought us TSclientX worked on making PianoBar work under PowerPC. Huge thanks to Daniel!! Sign in with your email and password, then select the Pandora station you want. This will tell you the track currently playing, and if...
