Using Snow Leopard 10.6.8

• Do I need to use snow leopard installation discs to clear and then pass on late 2007 MacBook running 10.5.6?

  Yet another question about the old MacBook crafty as questions involve. I begin to feel that the only way to clean it and the Mac is with software disks. Can I directly go with Snow Leopard, or do I have the disks to Leopard 10.5?

  If theres an easier way using recovery disk fade and internet utility that would be really great!

  Help please!

  You can use the Snow Leopard disc to install directly - you don't need to delete unless you want to. Your Macbook came with 1 GB of RAM and that meets the requirements that you might find it a little tight. If you are able to update the RAM would the Mac work better.

• How can I access utilities for PS8250 using Snow leopard printer?

  I used my PS8250 with OS X 10.4.11 for 3 or 4 years. I access the HP photo utilities to verify supply levels, align new ink cartridges, etc.

  Now, I have a new Mac Mini with OS X 10.6.7 and I can't find my set of utilities print so I can do it. I checked HP downloads and told me that the drivers were included with Snow Leopard, and they are with the exception of the set of utilities with power level control.

  Any ideas?

  -Joe

  Unfortunately, this network configuration does not use the utility - it does not work for printers shared via another computer.

  It only works when it has a direct access to the device: printer must be connected to the network through its internal network card, if it has one, or directly to your mac via USB.

  Utility should work on your G4, if you have it installed there.

A few seconds at the start of the process of scanning later, there is an unexpected error and the scan is canceled. Y at - it an update of the drive that I need to install?

• I want to erase everything and clean install on late 2007 MacBook 3,1 13 ". Should I use 10.5 Leopard or 10.6 Snow Leopard to do that?

  So I basically need to wipe and install to get rid of someone else on the MacBook that has not been cleaned it correctly before passing. I'll have to buy software or 10.5 and 10.6, I found, but I was wondering who would be best to go with start-up costs.

  Use Snow Leopard. It is easier to find and cheaper.

• Process of return to Snow Leopard of El Capitan

  I have an iMac from the beginning of 2008.  I was using Snow Leopard successfully.  Last weekend, I've upgraded to El Capitan.  During the conversion, I lost all my email history.  I had saved Snow Leopard in Time Machine just before the upgrade.  I want to find a process documented back to Snow Leopard (I have the dicc) and time using Time Machine to reinstall the emails.  I tried to reinstall the e-mails with the help of El Capitan, but it does not work.  Did Snow Leopard work - El Capitan runs very slowly with my chip set.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Here's what you need to do:

  Snow Leopard erase and install

  Remember to only back up your files.

  1. Insert the Snow Leopard DVD in the optical drive and restart the computer.
  2. Immediately after hearing the chime hold down the C key.
  3. Release the button when the Apple logo appears and wait for loading to complete.
  4. After the installer loads, choose your language and click on the continue button. When the menu bar appears select utility drive in the Utilities menu.  After disk utility charges select the entry out-bumpy in the list aside (mfgr. size ID and disc drive.)  In the right side of the disk utility window, click the Partition tab.  Set the number of partitions of one (1) in the menu dropdown. Click the Options button and select GUID, click on OK, the value of the Mac OS Extended journaled format type. Finally, click on the apply button.
  5. Once the format is complete, quit disk utility.  Continue with the installation of OS X and follow the directions.
  6. Once installation is complete, the computer will restart in the installation wizard. After completing the Setup Wizard, you will use a new installation of Snow Leopard. Open the software update and install updates recommended.
  7. If you plan to sell or to give to your remote computer, then proceed as follows: once you reformat your hard disk and reinstall Snow Leopard, the computer restarts with a welcome screen. To leave the Mac in a State OOTB (Out Of The Box), do not continue with the Setup program. Instead, press the command and Q keys to stop the computer. The installation wizard will guide you the new owner through the installation procedure, after that it turns on the computer.
  8. Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 v1.1 updated Combo. If necessary. It is not necessary if you are selling or giving your computer away.

• Helps the Photosmart C6180 Snow Leopard screen

  I install Photosmart C6180 all-in-One on my Mac using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.   I want to access using Mac HP Photosmart for details on its use, but I can not find this file.  In the folder applications folder Hewlett-Packard includes HP Scan, uninstall HP, HP utility and utility peripheral files and licenses. The way I understand it is to use the Apple Software Update instead of using the software (CD) that came with the all-in-one.  I used the Apple software update. The CD that came with the all-in-one is the version 7.8.0.  I am out of the help file or I misunderstood the instructions and I already have all the files?  If so how do I access the folder help?

  Thank you.

  If you are using Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion and have HP software for Snow Leopard before (either from a CD that is not marked as compatible with 10.6-10,8 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard uninstall of the old software or installed new software on top of it) You must uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

  Click on continue
  Highlight your device in the left pane
  Press and hold Ctrl + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard at the same time as you click on uninstall< this="" is="" the="" scrubber="" option,="" there="" is="" no="" button="" labeled="">
  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

  Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907

• Cannot scan with Photosmart C6280 with Mac OS x Snow Leopard.

  When I try to scan with my Mac, I get a scanner not found error.  I am able to print.  When I access the HP utility, it shows the printer in the installed column but it shows a Red House beside her and will not let me access it. The printer is connected to an Apple Airport Extreme, via an ethernet cable, and the airport is linked via a USB cable to the computer.

  I guess you mean that the printer and the Mac are connected to the router with Ethernet Airport?

• Scan multiple pages into 1 file PDF with Snow Leopard &amp; HP C3180

  Using Leopard with my Photosmart C3180, scanning of multiple pages into a single PDF was intuitive, through a window of drop-down that appears after the first page was scanned, asking if there was another page. You could sweep dozens and dozens of pages that would go into a single PDF. As the overall scanning interface unusable a, the Device Manager HP and well Snow Leopard seems easier, it doesn't seem to be a way to analyze a 2nd or 3rd or 4th page into a single PDF.

  The following sequence illustrates how now scan, using Snow Leopard and my C3180... Hope it helps anyone who might be looking for help. But can anyone help me with the problem of scanning multiple pages in a single PDF file? It is more a message or an option or a button, asking if there is any the following pages. Thank you.

  Apple menu > system Pref > Print & Fax > Scan > Scanner open > (preview Scan appears in the display) > (on gray screento right overview Scan, name the file, select location & size, makeadjustments) > Scan

  redz1115,

  Here's what I did to make it work...

  Open Preview, select the file Menu--> import from a Scanner--> select your scanner.  The importation of the "Name of your Scanner" window will appear.

  Click the show details--> adjust your size, and color settings uncheck 'Detect the separate elements', change PDF format--> click Scan

  When its finished, preview scanning will open your new PDF page.  At this time, edit your document in the scanner and click the scan button again. Preview will add the new analysis of the open document.

  Hope that helps.

• May my end 2011 MBP running 10.11.5 El Capitan using Back to My Mac to see my 2006 Mac Mini running Snow Leopard 10.6.8?

  I want to be able to access my Mac Mini to the road, but it supports the latest OS is 10.6.8 which was at the time of MobileMe. How can I use back to my mac to access the mini?

  Thank you!

  I suspect that Snow Leopard 10.6 doesn't have access to iCloud, so set up Back-to-My-Mac might be a problem.

  You can use (free for personal use) TeamViewer.com screen sharing and transfer between your 2 file systems.

  <http://teamviewer.com>

  Try the current version on both systems, but if you have you can also get an older version for Snow Leopard system

  <https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/previous-versions/>

  It is otherwise more complicated for remote connections, to open ports in your personal router, setting up secure ssh tunnels, etc., but it is really something for people who love to get down and dirty with pieces of computer

  HOW TO INSTALL FIREWIRE

  in response to Kofta

  Solved

  Hi Kofta

  To use the firewire transfer mode, restart the iBook and when the screen goes black, hold down the T key on his keyboard. You should see a Firewire symbol on the screen after a few minutes. Connect the two computers with a Firewire cable, and you should see the iBook's hard drive mount on the desktop of your iMac. You can now copy your files everywhere.

  If the iMac is brand new and you want to copy your users, applications, and settings, you can use the automatic Migration Wizard that will be launched when you start the computer - or, you can run it at any time from the Applications/Utilities folder.

• I have a mac 2009 i (late), I want again to install snow leopard (I have the disc), but my driver disk is broken! So I want to ask if there is a way to create a disk image of my windows pc to use it through the hard drive of my imac Lord?

  External DVD USB drives are cheap. Usually $20 for a good quality player. Just buy one of these at Best Buy or another store and use it to install Snow Leopard. Then you also have a drive for something else that you have on the disk.

• I've updated my macbookpro (2010) snow leopard at elcapitan but when I restart it does not complete the installation then is no longer able to use it. Help?

  I've updated my macbookpro (2010) snow leopard at elcapitan but when I restart it does not complete the installation then is no longer able to use it.

  I tried the following:

  1 start with the R command and using disk utility that did say he had problems but then appear all ok after completing.

  2 tried the Verbose mode and did not work

  3. I tried command mode S did not.

  4. tried to zap the pram was not working.

  5 a couple other things that I had read, but nothing helped.

  It starts up and the line begins to show the computer made his 'thing', but gets stuck about 3/4 quarters of and goes no further. Would appreciate any suggestions.

  PS: also tried boot from the original disks as well, but no luck.

  You said "PS: also starting from the original disks tried both but no luck."

  Exactly what happened when you tried?

  Have you tried formatting the HD?

  Have you started the installation of SL?
