EDIT: I am running an unofficial Macports repo for 10.5 Leopard. This means you can install a subset of Leopard packages via Macports with zero compilation time. While not even close to every port is included (there are over 30,000 available via Macports), I've focused on big ticket items...
Hi, I need help with my Power Mac G5! I tried to make a bootable USB for Leopard but when I go into the boot selector, the drive doesn't come up, when I try to launch the installer from Mac OS X, it just reboots into the OS, and when I try to boot into it from open firmware, it just shows the...
Hi, I have a Power Mac G5 running Mac OS X 10.3.0. I have installed a DVD RW drive that supports burning and reading dual-layer DVDs as the original one only can read burned dual-layer DVDs but when I installed the new one the burning option was disabled in disk utility and the system profiler...
Introduction
(Read in Tim Cook's voice)
It's safe to say that a great many users in the PowerPC community (used to) rely on Mac OS X Leopard regularly and leverage its useful features just as often. However, there are certain elements laced throughout the default user experience that have...
I've just got my ipad back from getting a screen replacement. I put it on charge and went to use use and it restarted by its self and then does so after 3ish minutes. I've deleted all my apps and reset the setting and tried a hard reset but nothing worked. It's currently on 13.3.1 but it won't...
I have an approx 1in spot on my iPad Pro screen which is brighter than the rest of the screen - it's unevenly lit. The spot is about 2in above the home button, and although it has soft edges, I'm anal about my gadgets, and the difference in brightness could be described as 'minor', it's clearly...
I have the new Air 2019 10.5. I expected to lose the ability to edit and create documents using word and excel for free. I won’t go Office 365 out of principle.
However to my delight I have found that documents that already exist in the cloud (I use Dropbox) and opened in the Word and Excel...
Hey everybody,
I have been having issues with my iPad Pros battery lately. The battery just drains very quickly, even when the iPad is not being used at all. Sometimes it would be losing 20-30% of battery overnight. Yesterday I did a clean restore of iOS on the device and set it up as new, no...
I’ve had some issues with my iPad Pro 10.5 recently, where the device will show pixelation and graphics distortion, crashes out of apps extremely frequently, and will occasionally restart while sleeping. I had some issues during iOS 12 beta, had a restore error, and still have frequent app...
Hi everyone,
I have a 10.5” iPad Pro with Apple’s Smart Keyboard purchased Oct 2017. I took the Smart Keyboard off for the first time in a long time and saw some damage to the alluminum where the hinge of the Smart Keyboard connects to the iPad.
At first I thought it was a dent on the...
I have had a great experience thus far with my 10.5 picking it up months ago back when it was still running iOS 10. I'm not much of a gamer but recently decided to pick some games up from the app store. Whenever I go to the home screen after playing a game the multitasking menu will pause for...
I want to upgrade a iMac G5 20" iSight to Mac OS X Leopard, but I don't know if all the retail versions will work? Also, where is the best place to find cheap Mac OS X retail DVDs?
Hey folks,
I'm away from my home setup for a while but upgraded my new 12" 1.33 iBook to a SSD. Problem now is that I have no FW drive around, no USB stick and the DVD drive isn't working :D
The only thing I have is a BlackBook, a 10.5 dmg and a FW cable. So I thought it should be possible to...
This is a bit of a rant about crappy Apple service, and also a warning to watch out for this issue.
I noticed that my 10.5" wasn't charging properly the night before I was going on a trip to a town that has an Apple Store. It got worse over the course of my trying to troubleshoot it for an...
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)...
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...
I have an iPad Pro 10.5". I noticed that the speakers aren't super loud. They seem slightly quieter than my old 9.7 pro.
For the 1st 1/3 of the volume meter, its very quiet, almost as if no sound is coming out until 3 or 4 bars. It gets loud in the last 1/3.
Also the keyboard clicks aren't very...
So, I got the new iPad yesterday & instantly installed iOS 11. Mostly everything works great for a beta, just having one main issue. I cannot seem to get my iPad to send messages using my iPhone phone number. Has this happened to anyone? Does anyone have any solutions?
I know that there will be...
