leopard

Hi all, Is there a consensus on which OS is better for a 12” PowerBook G4? I’ve installed Tiger on a 867mhz model, and Leopard on a 1.5Ghz. Both with max RAM (1125 on the low end), both with a SSD upgrade (mSATA to IDE). What’s surprised me is that the Tiger machine feels just a touch...

Hi all, I’m trying to find a way to listen to podcasts on either a G4 iMac or PowerBook, both running leopard. It’s looking like iTunes 10.6.3 won’t allow podcast downloads, though. Are there any alternative, lightweight programmes that I could try instead? Or, does anyone know of a workaround...

PPCMC 7 is now 1.5 years old, and has seen 25 updates since version 7.0. Recently it has come to my attention that something weird is going on with using VLC and QuickTime to watch YouTube livestreams. Apparently Google changed something, I think it’s to do with the codec/format somehow...

Whilst looking for ways to get some level of basic emoji support for the Clouded Leopard project (Snow Leopard for PowerPC), I learnt of a nifty way to integrate a basic, early emoji support for Snow Leopard, Leopard, and even Tiger. This workaround for what I guess amounts to backmojis can be...

IOQuake 3 is an open source Quake III game engine. Awhile ago, I ported the latest version to OpenBSD and got it added to the official OpenBSD ports tree. Now with the power of Panther SDL2 I have restored Mac OS X 10.3.9/10.4.x compatibility to the latest version of IOQuake3. Previously, Mac OS...

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 gather from searching around that the answer amounts to “not possible”: From SL onward, the default file name for screencapture is “Screen shot YYYY-MM-DD at HH:mm:ss.[format]”. Pre-SL, the default file name was “Picture [x].[format]”, where “x” was a sequential digit. In Tiger or Leopard...

I always found it a bit irritating how quickly 10.5 support was dropped by developers back when 10.6 hit the shelves, whereas its successor enjoyed support for a much longer period of time, so I've made a descision to take matters into my own hands by compiling some 10.5 compatible software...

Hi there, i manage to resurrect a g4 quicksilver 867mhz with 2 80gb hds running Tiger. Now, i have some sata initio 1622 card installed and 250gb hd conected to it with leopard 10.5.8 from a(nother one) dead G5. On Tiger, all discs get properly mounted on desktop and running but i cannot manage...

Happy 2023! Welcome to the community WikiPost. We will be discussing OS X Leopard on G3’s (and G4’s). As of early 2023, the guide is “active”. The content has been updated, however, we are still looking for someone to finish the shell script to automate the install. [/SPOILER] If you want...

What is the best PowerPC Mac that: Is an all-in-one Supports 10.5 (I don't care about 9)

[ Title Image Coming Soon ] After 3+ months in development and much longer in the making, I'm pleased to announce what will be my final dual-project for PowerPC OS X. Introducing AuroraSuite, a specially curated collection of software for Mac OS X Leopard under the purpose of being a locally...

Hi all, I had an old ABBU backup with all my contacts from a PPC running leopard which i sold a while ago. Today, i tried to import the ABBU file in the new CONTACTS app in my High Sierra, and it imports well BUT When i import the file in contacts i loose long fields that also have soft...

Hey all! I'm fairly new to Mac OS X Server, but I'm learning as I go! I know you can do this, but apparently it's either never been an issue for people or for some reason it's just really hard to search online for. :/ I've been trying to get a Share Point on my Mac OS X Server Leopard 10.5...

Trying to install OSX 10.5.2(Leopard) from original install discs onto a separate partition. However, no luck as it just reboots to main partition. I'm not sure if there's any other way to get the install disc to run. Anyone know how I can get around this large gap in OS versions?

I have a few custom made versions of the icon but it bothers me that it's not the real deal and also I can't seem to get the gamma correct. Does anybody here happen to have the actual icon that came with Snow Leopard's Developer preview?

Today is the my 42nd birthday and I have decided that a dumb decision is just dumb when stopping theming. It's what I like doing. SIP off - never an issue or problem being off anyway, so why would it ever be?! Previously I stated that I was done with theming forever.. turns out ... not true...

Last night I discovered, that all my internet-radio streaming links were broken and didn't work with iTunes 10 on my 12" PowerBook anymore. Searching for another web-radio streaming app I was lucky to find "FStream". You will find the latest version to work with PPC/Leopard&Tiger via Wayback...

So, one of the biggest issues to anyone who uses Leopard/Snow Leopard is Discord. Personally I can't go without it since I started using it in 2015. How do you guys run discord on your machines (assuming you use Discord)? Using the web app in Firefox ESR 45 is kinda slow on my early 2006 MBP...
