No sound on Snow Leopard virtual machine

Hello

I use Fusion 6 for Mac to virtualize Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro to run PPC applications that are no longer compatible with the post-Lion updates. I was able to install OS X Snow Leopard Server, but the sound card does not seem to be recognized by the virtual machine. I have it configured correctly in settings (making sure that the adapter is enabled) and it works on my regular desktop, but when I go into the virtual machine it is not even on the output in the control panel.

Could someone help me please?

Thanks in advance

Leon

Delete according to the .vmx config file option , and you should have sound then.

sound.virtualDev = 'hdaudio '.

Note to stop, not suspend, the Virtual Machine and close the virtual machine window and set the focus of the entry of the virtual machine in the library Virtual Machine or VMware Fusion.

The attached file "Mac_OS_X_Server_Snow_Leopard.vmx.zip" contains an edited "Mac OS X Server Snow Leopard.vmx" for your convenience.

  • Yosemite to Snow Leopard and back to Yosemite

    Hello world.   My first question on a blog!  I upgraded to Yosemite and now can't use some older software to work, so not able to get the data.  Can someone me that it would be normal to return to snow leopard, get the data moved elsewhere, then reinstall the Yosemite?  I hope this makes sense.  There is a lot of data.  Thank you for all your comments!

    Yes, if you have created a Snow Leopard time Machine, you can restore from this backup as shown below

    Once you are ready to upgrade to Yosemite yet once, just go to the App store, click purchased purchased tab and download OS X Yosemite. Then once he completes the free download and install Yosemite by following the instructions. I hope this helps!

  • Running same virtual machine in the Lion and the snow leopard cause problems?

    I just loaded a new hard drive with Mac OS X Lion to run some programs that run only on Lion.  My Mac serves mainly through Snow Leopard installed on the main hard drive.  I can boot to an OS or the other.  Two questions:

    (1) can I have my a copy of VMware Fusion 4.1.1 installed on the disk of Lion and leopard snow by car?  Of course, I can only use one at a time since I can start only upward in an OS.

    (2) if I do the above and open my Windows XP VM on Lion, are all changes to the virtual machine that would make it unusable under Snow Leopard (or vice versa)?

    Make sure that your VM is off - not suspended--before the host.
    Then it should work without problem

    Hello!

    It is the first time I'm trying to merge.  I read a post that was now possible with the new release of the Fusion to install the version no of OS x Server Leopard and Snow Leopard.

    I downloaded the trial version free and started the merger... Inserted my Snow Leopard 10.6. DVD retail, but I got the msg that Mac OS x Server is not the guest operating system.

    How can I install it?

    This article was written during the brief window where you * might * install SL customer in a virtual machine, before Apple explained their license agreement with VMware.  It is not possible, because it is a violation of the policy of Apple.

  • restoration of time Snow Leopard machine on el capitan

    My iMac is toast. I have a MacBook Pro, dated but supported for El Capitan. I want to spend all my El Capitan Time machine, including the operating system for the MacBook Pro. Instructions to do this involve booting from a recovery partition, or an equivalent of the internet. But the Snow Leopard operating system does not support these approaches. How to boot in order to restore?

    I discovered recently, after trying to start my El Capitan Macbook Pro to an ext hdd than Snow Leopard snow leopard anything or not can not read the disc El Capitan. However, the reverse is ok.

    The best thing I think would be to reinstall the time Machine back to El Capitan, then do a manual brake and fall back to the top of your data to another drive before installation installation of Snow Leopard then drag and drop your files backed up to your new snow Leopard.

    It is because (if I remember correctly), time machine back ups are difficult to navigate. I always use Carbon Copy Cloner as it makes a bootable copy of my drive and you can easily access your files if you plug it in as an ext hdd.

    You only really need to back up your home folder and make sure that your keychain files and the browser are stored, and then reinstall all your applications. Maybe a little harder if you have a lot of paid applications.

    That's what I'd do, but maybe someone else has a better idea.

  • Time machine is unable to perform a backup. Not able to access the sparsebundle. Problem occurred first on snow leopard OS. Followed Dragon upgrade to El Capitan. Only difference has error code of 109 changed to null. What about someone?

    Time machine is unable to perform a backup. Not able to access the sparsebundle. First of all, there is problem with the Snow Leopard operating system. Dragon followed in the upgrade to El Capitan. Only difference was error code 109 changed to 'null '. What about someone?

    We need some info.

    You can access from the finder Time Capsule? If this isn't the case, then Time Machine will not work.

    You upgrade the computer snow to El Capo and keep the same name?

    If you want to backup, it is best to start again... clean the new backup any attempt to add a previous backup failed.

    I recommend that you actually erase the TC... do a complete factory reset and start again.

    The previous backup if necessary can be archived on a USB drive connected to the TC assuming that Airport utility can still access it. Airport utility accesses the TC?

    With update installs all sorts of things can go wrong... so tell me more if you can not get anywhere.

  • Clean install of Snow Leopard backup Time Machine

    I'm swapping computers with my daughter. Both MacBooks, one with installed Yosemite, the other with Snow Leopard.

    We have backed up our files to separate external drives. Now, I have two related questions.

    1. If I understand correctly, we can now delete all the contents of the MacBook Snow Leopard and do a clean install of Yosemite or El Capitan before (or at the same time that?) from the TM backup data recovery. This hypothesis is correct?

    2. the content of the Snow Leopard system should be installed on the MacBook running Yosemite. What's the procedure here? In other words, it is possible erase the drive, and then start the computer into recovery mode is to have only the Time Machine backup?

    TIA.

  • 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:

  • Installation problem in the virtual machine Windows 98 sound card driver

    Hello, all.

    I have bad to configure a virtual machine for Windows 98 is running VMware Workstation 7.0.1 in a 64-bit Windows 7 host. Normally, the operating system installed without error, and then I went to install the VMware tools. No problem here, either. I am then went to the Device Manager and, as expected, the sound card is driverless and listed under "other devices", with a question mark and named "PCI Multimedia Audio Device. I don't care because I knew that Windows 98 had no driver for the sound card workstation provides. I wasn't expecting to see another unknown device, however, this one called "PCI peripheral system. As recommended, I went to the website of Creative and sought "PCI 128. I found three different drivers there for the use of the device with Windows 98. Then, I installed the newest one and hoped it would also take care of the other unknown device. However, what happened is that I had a blue screen to complain the vxd ctpci9x (05). The sound card is now recognised as "Creative Sound Blaster PCI128" but had an exclamation point on the corresponding icon and did not work - no sound was available. The other device is remained unknown. I also tried the other two pilots, but the results were exactly the same.

    I enclose two screenshots, one of the blue screen and the other from Device Manager after installing the driver.

    Help, please.

  • Run the utilities from disk on machine with Yosemite Snow Leopard startup disk?

    I have a 2009 imac that came with Snow Leopard. I've since updated my OS to Yosemite. Should I run the disc from my old snow leopard startup disk utilities or is it a bad idea?

    It is not a 'bad' idea, but it is always best to use the version of disk utility which is part of the OS version installed. Do this by starting the computer from the Recovery HD.

    Fix the hard disk and permissions

    HD recovery start

    Restart the computer and after the chime hold the Order et R keys until the Menu of the utility is displayed.

    Repair

    When the Utility Menu appears, select disk utility and click on the continue button. Disk utility charges and select layouts withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) entry of the list to one side.  Click the first aid tab, and then click the repair disk button. If disk utility reports any errors that have been corrected, then again run repair disc until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, click repair permissions . Wait for the process to finish, and then quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu. Select restart from the Apple menu.

  • Fusion running Snow Leopard has invisible virtual ports for wireshark

    Win XP SP3 molten can surf the net through the mac airport to be filled or thin nat mode. the mac has a static ip address. the windows is set to dhcp.

    ifconfig on the poster for the mac

    EN1: inet 192.168.1.43 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255

    VMnet1: inet 172.16.193.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.193.255

    VMnet8: inet 172.16.143.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.143.255

    ipconfig on windows shows

    The connection-specific DNS suffix. : Home

        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.42
        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
    

    When the ipconfig command is released and renewed merger network card settings are replaced by NAT, then ipconfig shows

        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : localdomain
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 172.16.143.132

        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 172.16.143.2
    

    This shows that the virtual machine is now through the subnet of Wireshark vmnet8 however does not reveal vmnet8 and just en0 - en1 and en1 is getting all the traffic. Why no vmnet8? Why vmnet8 receives a routable address? It should not be one of those numbers 192.xxx.xxx.xxx or non-routable 10.xxx.xxx.xxx? And even if windows is bridged and use 192.168.1.42, little snitch on mac keeps asking if vmnet-natd(8) can talk to the net, so I know that it is active.

    I can see the packets destined for the ip address of windows but it is mixed with the traffic destined for the mac (I know because they both use the same airport) but it's all exceed them en1.

    (btw, I don't understand why the gateway in windows is not 172.16.143.1 but plutot.2 - after all the windows box to not talk to vmnet8?)

    Why vmnet8 receives a routable address? It should not be one of those numbers 192.xxx.xxx.xxx or non-routable 10.xxx.xxx.xxx?

    172.16.143.132 is a non-routable address.  Take a look "3. Private address space' in the document RFC 1597 - Address Allocation for Private Internets.

    (btw, I don't understand why the gateway in windows is not 172.16.143.1 but plutot.2 - after all the windows box to not talk to vmnet8?)

    Except for VMnet0, the default value for the last byte is always 1 for all other VMnets on the host and, therefore, the last byte of a IP address of gateway with a VMnet NAT in the default values of comments 2.  These are encoded in the VMware Virtual Network Infrastructure but can be easily changed in the virtual network Editor.  Oh, sorry, it's true that VMware has not provided users of VMware Fusion with a publisher of network virtual as in VMware Workstation or even their free VMware Player!   This means that any changes made to the VMnets must be done manually.

  • His guest of Snow Leopard Server in Fusion 7 in Yosemite?

    Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I have found some answers to Fusion 4, but didn't work for me. The problem is that I seem to be able to get a sound of a new Snow Leopard Server virtual machine.

    I tried of course to add the audio card in the virtual machine in Fusion settings, but nothing helped. Install the EnsoniqAudioPCI_v1.0.3_Common_Installer.pkg in the guest does not have anything either. My procedure was perhaps wrong? Can someone explain what are the specific steps and/or downloads should be done to a guest of Snow Leopard Server have sound?

    Thank you.

    Some good news, Woody and all. I just recreated the Snow Leopard Server 64-bit) virtual machine from scratch with VMware Fusion 7.0.1 (after adding the virtual Hardware Sound Card before installing the guest operating system). After installing the VMware Tools and restart, I installed the driver Ensoniq restarted 1.0.3 and, as was to be expected, no sound. Then I turned off the VM, then I open the vmx with Text Edit file and deleted the line incriminated who supposedly provided hdaudio to the guest OS. I saved the file and rebooted the computer virtual and boom! Sound œuvres.

    Thanks to you all.

  • Installation 10.11.6 El Capitan with 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on old Mac Pro 4.2 multiboot?

    Looking for savvy here advice...  I have an old Mac Pro 4.2 (cheese grater) that runs Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  It is a wonderful workhorse machine, who served me tirelessly for many years.  It is obviously older and slower, but works very well.  I love 10.6.8.  If Apple ever updated the Mac Pro line (I know, probably not... sigh...), I'll buy one and replace this machine.  Until then, I keep doing this work.

    This machine is a beast, has been upgraded with internal hard drives 1 TB three (he also got a couple internal HDs inherited from 750 and 500 MB used for storage).  I have also several external 1-4 to, hip, FW800 drives too.  A host of storage, of course, and should be a lot of options to start on several systems.

    I am generally satisfied with 10.6.8 on this machine, although there are obvious limits to that.  I would get one or two operating systems newer on it, pick-and-choose between them according to the needs, but I absolutely want to/need to preserve the ability to initiate and run 10.6.8 systematically as my operating system on the day the day, at least for now.  Maybe I'll warm to one of the others on this machine eventually, but 10.6.8 must remain usable, install a newer OS on other readers may not nerve there.

    On a year-and-a-half ago, I took a race to install 10.10.3 Yosemite on one of the internal disks.  This doesn't quite work.  I moved, sniffed Yosemite everywhere, don't really like it a lot and went to restart and him switch back to 10.6.8 for a bit.  Initially, it was impossible (from less than I expected, would be the same old process, I have always used, via system preferences > startup disk).  You can read the details of this experience here and more here if you are interested.  This latest attempt to get Yosemite on this machine was a very negative experience.  Yosemite is still there on an internal HD, but I tried not to boot on it since then.

    Now I take another look at this.  What is the engine now, is that I want to update my iPad Mini 3 iOS 10.  But that (update of an iDevice iOS 10) requires iTunes 12.5.1.  And iTunes 12.5.1 requires Mac OS X 10.9.5 or newer - it won't work with 10.6.8.  I'm looking for my options.

    Right now, I have three large internal HDs: HD #1, 2 # HD and HD #3, each 1 TB.

    HD #1 has 10.10.3 Yosemite on this.  I started from this time and have not resumed since.

    HD #2 has 10.6.8 Snow Leopard top.  This is my main operating system and startup of daily drive.

    HD #3 is nothing special about it.

    Although HD #1's Yosemite about that, I have only started from this disc once and hesitate to go back, at least until I can get a way easy and reliable to restart off HD #2.

    I understand that I can also get 10.11.6 El Capitan.  I thought that installing on HD #3.  That sounds like a reasonable to add option, but again, I want to make sure it won't cause problems to switch back to start off HD #2 in Snow Leopard (such as installation of Yosemite on HD #1).

    What is the best way for me to go about safely - preserve the option to start easily in 10.6.8 on HD #2?

    Thanks for the help!

    If you start or restart now Option (Alt) key and calls the Startup Manager, you should be given the choice at the start of any boot disk OS X on any of the readers.
