    From Capitan to Snow Leopard

    Hello. Ok. So I bought an iMac inbetween 2010-2012. I never updated the version because I only bought it to work with Pro Tools. A couple of days ago I for some reason updated to El Capitan, but Pro Tools 8 does not work with El Capitan. Is there anyway to 'go back' to Snow Leopard? That's...

    Discord

    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...

    iMac G5 (late 2005) not starting up (shows an old folder screen)

    I managed to get a free 20” Intel iMac (one of the early white ones, so it must have come out in 2006) because the owner had a problem with it he couldn’t fix and just gave it to me. (The only reason I think it’s an Intel is because it’s thinner than the G5 version) It turns out the problem was...

    Transforming Leopard into Snow 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...
