Mavericks upgrade to Snow Leopard

• Upgrade to Snow Leopard and Time Machine

  Hello. I found this topic in an old topic, but it has been blocked so I couldn't answer. Here is a new.

  I have a fairly old MacBook Pro... mid-2007. Provided with Tiger. Upgrade to Leopard in 2010 or more. I want to now upgrade to Snow Leopard and make a complete installation where I have completely clean the existing hard drive.

  I did the Time Machine backups for about four years on my external hard drive. When I install Snow Leopard on my MBP, I can just do simple drag and drop the kind of things from my external hard drive on the hard drive of the MBP?

  For example, once I've erased the hard disk of the MBP and do a new installation of Snow Leopard, can I then connect my external hard drive, open a certain folder and something like Pages slide window of the HD to the window of the Applications on my MBP?

  Thank you!

  Drag and Drop could be a problem, because these applications and files will not be usable unless they are properly updated. It would be better to have a clean install of Snow Leopard and then use the Migration Assistant to transfer files from your Time Machine backup. Note that Snow Leopard will ship with the Apple apps so they do not need to be transferred. You can check with 3rd party developers to ensure the compatibility of their software and upgrade options.

  It is with the Migration Wizard:

• Cannot parse after upgrading to Snow Leopard - C4580

  I have the HP all in one single C4580. No problems of printing or scanning up to that I've upgraded to Snow Leopard. I can still print but I can't scan unless I have used Image Capture. The printer does not appear in the window HP all in one device selector. I did set up the wizard again but my home network says that the server has failed and will not recognize the scanner. Anyone with the same problem?

  [title edited for clarity]

  You still have the HP software for 10.5 installed.  It does not play well with 10.6.  Let's remove this way:

  Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
  Click on continue
  Highlight your device in the left pane
  Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall
  There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
  Click on continue and let it finish

  Now run a software update.

  Then, remove and reinstall the printer in System Preferences, Print & Fax.

  You do not have the software now since Snow Leopard as well print & scan drivers built-in. scan from Preview apps or Image Capture. Scan from the front panel of the printer does not work yet.

• 'All settings' menu inactive/gray on HPC5550 after upgrade Mac Snow Leopard

  I've just updated for Mac OS X 10.5.8 to 10.6.7 and cannot print.  I get "Printer cartridge failure" messages whenever I try to print.  I only use the black ink cartridge and let the empty color cartridge slot, which never seemed a question before.

  If you are using snow leopard and have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard from the old software uninstaller or installed new software on top of it) , you must uninstall the software using the "scrubber":

  Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
  Click on continue
  Highlight your device in the left pane
  Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall< scrubber="">
  There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
  Click on continue and let it finish

  Restart your Mac

  Now run a software update.

  Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" driver and software from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

• J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard

  My J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard. I can print fine but when I try and scan is says sorry, scanner could not be initialized (Scanner not found.)

  You scan the front of the unit?  The software included in Sl does not support that.  Also note the HP Scan Pro included in the 10.5 software will not work with 10.6.  The 10.5 software and delete the print queue.  Make sure your 10.6 is update 10.6.1 and go here to download and install the HP software for 10.6 and Setup for your J6540.  You should be able to scan after that.

• PSC 2510i AIO: NOT more than scan after upgrade to Snow Leopard

  Hello

  After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can't find my scan feature.

  I tried to different paths:

  1. install such as proposed through the Apple software update: no scanner not found, printing is working A-OK

  2. install HP_Installer_PSC2500_v9.7.dmg: does not work, gives errors.

  Removed all and re-installed the Apple / drivers HP through software update

  I've tested the HW, works fine, can sweep on the machine itself, but it is not a solution.

  I am enough fan of this machine, 100% over the years in the home network.

  Does anyone have a suggestion?

  Appreciate your help :-)

  Thank you!

  Hey the HP team.

  Just got an update of the printer HP by Apple and yes I can see the PSC2510i
  And Scan.

  It crashed a few times, but I guess that the reports will reach the development team.

  I am happy!
  I can disconnect and stop the Windows laptop...

  AND!  not even an additional feature!

  Multiples of scanning.
  It distinguises different objects, makes life much easier.

  Thanks again

• After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.5 most of the files does not open in CS3 Rosetta, grayed out menu items

  After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.5 most of the files will not open in CS3 and more menu items are gray,

  like "Photoshop" and "quit Photoshop. I have to force it to quit. Don't know what version of CS3 since 'about this Mac' is not available.

  But CS3 runs in mode of "Rosetta". I had done this years ago, my scanner would work.

  I don't remember how I managed to do run in Rosetta and don't know how to do so he could operate normally, if necessary.

  Change the name of the file or the plugin to have ~ as first character will prevent it to be loaded.

• run Mavericks desktop under Snow Leopard?

  Hello

  I have 3.1.3 Fusion running on my MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.8. I hesitate to take the free Apple to the Mavericks update because I'm perfectly happy with my OS and I don't want to suddenly have a whole bunch of updates of music dear to perform. But I need to do a little test of some sw in Mavericks. So I thought I would create a virtual machine using my OS x 10.6.8 install disc supplied with my MacBook and then let Apple upgrade the virtual machine to the Mavericks. But the merger just sort of recognizes the DVD, it seems - he knows it's an OS X installation disc, but it doesn't give me that versions of the operating system to choose in the drop-down list server (and if I choose one and go ahead, the virtual machine does not start).

  So, my question is, how to get a desktop Mavericks OS on a virtual machine running on a host of Snow Leopard? I don't mind paying to upgrade to Fusion if it is a path to the solution, I don't want upgrade if it does not get me where I'm going.

  Thanks for any advice you can offer,

  Warren

  Well, a lot of problems with it.  You cannot virtualize 10.6.8 copy that came with your computer for two reasons: first, only the commercial versions of Mac OS x (not those that come with the computer) can be virtualized under the EULA.  Secondly, only 10.6.8 Server versions can be virtualized under this particular EULA (i.e. a changed with later versions).  You can buy a copy of 10.6.8 Server edition of apple by phone for about $20 (or at least you might a few months ago, but you can't upgrade the host operating system and have all the baggage of running server.)

  You could download installer 10.9 and create a new machine virtual own from scratch, but there are a couple of other challenges: Fusion 3 supports virtualization 10.9.  You may need to level and later what to do, can not run on 10.6.8.  It is also probably a violation of the EULA to virtualize 10.9 on 10.6.8 (edition of the same server), and it will not work even if your machine does not natively support 10.9.  You might also encounter issues if you have a Core 2 Duo machine (most of the vintage 10.6 machines are like that) - since it has only two hearts and 10.9 VM require 2 hearts are working properly, you'll be starving the host for CPU cycles.

  Since 10.6.8 is outdated and is no longer supported by Apple (not even security - patches if you are high risk on the Internet), one possible option is to upgrade the OS host to 10.9 (even once, assuming that the machine can be improved), upgrade to buy Fusion 6 (or 7 to be released soon), the 10.6.8 apple license and create a 10.6.8 VM (which should have only a single core) for the old programs you don't want to update.

  Otherwise, the only real option is to dual-boot from an external drive or a partition of the internal drive - a partition for 10.9 and 10.6.8 and boot back and forth between them.  This one, you can do with the license 10.6.8 customer provided with your machine.  But make sure you have a very good backup - and no time machine (it was notorious for silent corruption in the pre versions 10.7 and VM backup is not good at all).  I recommend Carbon Copy Cloner of www.bombich.com to create a complete clone.  You might even clone the machine on an external drive, then upgrade this clone to 10.9 (assuming that other software licenses are not violated with two installs of course).

• HP Officejet Pro 8000 has stopped working on the upgrade to Snow Leopard (10.6)

  Since the upgrade, despite the HP and Apple claiming that the upgrade would take care of things like new drivers, my 8000 Officejet Pro has stopped working. Of course, this could be a coincidence and something else caused the problem.

  Quite simply, the printer button will Flash. The manuals indicate it means need new paper in the tray, or there is a jam. In addition, the print utility said 'in paper '. Of course, I have no jams, and there are 40 pages of paper in the one and only the plateau.

  I deleted the printer in "Print & Fax", turned it off, unplugged the USB and then added back, twice, everything to nothing doesn't. Nothing changes. Still unable to print.

  It doesn't seem to be anything I can try. This page, "Mac OS x: installation and use of the product in Mac OS X 10.6", simply going to say that I should remove the printer and add it, which of course I did. There are no other suggestions for what I could do.

  So either 10.6 broke my ability to print, or the printer is otherwise defective and must be returned under warranty. Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Update...

  has gone through a series of emails with HP support, during which, with all due respect, I asked me to do what I had already tried. We got to the point where we were providing for the printer to be returned under warranty. Then yesterday morning, bam, the printer works again. No explanation and no idea.

  Best regards.

• Can I run the Mavericks and Snow Leopard on my MacBook?

  I have a mid-2009 MacBookPro (4 GB of RAM, 2.26 GHz) running Mavericks 10.9.5. I wish I never upgraded to Snow Leopard and was planning go back from iTunes (12.3.1) is now unable to find my library when I copied the files to my Time Capsule to a new HD post with the intention that the HD Ext. would be the new home for my iTunes library. I researched how to change the location of the library and followed the instructions but no luck. Many people, including my local tech, have suggested that this is because the Mavericks and editions of the latter to iTunes doesn't play well with my old MacBook and it has been suggested that I come back to Snow Leopard. I'm ready, but use the latest version of Aperture requiring (3.5.1) of the Mavericks, and given that Apple no longer supports opening there is no way to get 3.2.4, which is the last version that can run on Snow Leopard.

  I'd be able to keep the Mavericks and use it only if you use Aperture while being able to install Snow Leopard, and use it for everything? My MacBook seems better to work on Snow Leopard but opening works well on the Mavericks.

  I suppose that if I went down to iTunes 10.7 it would automatically get upgraded to the top without asking my permission, so there is no interest in any downgrades iTunes and it works on the Mavericks as a possible solution.

  Boot from the DVD and use disk utility to create a new partition on the internal drive. Install Snow Leopard. You can then start in which operating system never sought.
