I have an app that updates itself over the internet, and the updated copy won't run on PowerPC machines (G5) running Leopard (10.5.8). Double-clicking the app produces a message saying "You can't open the application "appname" because it is not supported on this architecture." But here's the weird part: if I duplicate the app using th...
Is it still possible to find the 3.1.3 SDK (w/ Xcode) for iPhone development on Leopard? I haven't upgraded to Snow Leopard yet, but I need to interact with devices running 3.1.3. I should have grabbed that version when it was up, but I didn't. So, does anyone have a link to the 3.1.3 iPhone SDK (w/ Xcode)? ...
I haven't found any concrete language on the terminal commands for installing python 3.1 on Leopard using MacPorts. I already have 2.5.1 on Leopard by way of Apple. I don't want to mess with this version & I think having the newer version of Python running from my opt/local file would be better. Also SQL3 comes packed with the standard P...

Hi I have Mac OS 10.6.3, python 2.6, mac ports 1.8.2. Im trying to run 'sudo port install py26-gtk' but my mac book doesn't get further than 'building gcc43', while doing that it switches off without shutting down. It is not overheating since I tried it again while my mac book was sandwiched between 2 cold packs. The mac was cool and t...
I'm attempting to execute an uninstaller (written in AppleScript) through AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges. I'm setting up my rights after creating an empty auth ref like so: char *tool = "/usr/bin/osascript"; AuthorizationItem items = {kAuthorizationRightExecute, strlen(tool), tool, 0}; AuthorizationRights rights = {size...
Mac OS X Snow Leopard's been in stores for a while now. Sadly, the Mac that I'll be developing on is still running Leopard, and I don't have admin access to the Mac either so I can't do anything about the OS version. Therefore I can only use iPhone SDK 3.1.3, which we've obtained thanks to this answer, to start building apps on that Mac....
Hey, I got Leopard with XCode 3.1 and SDK 3.0, when opening the organizer and trying to debug on my ipod I received "The version of iPhone OS on "..." does not match any of the versions of iPhone OS supported for development with this copy of xCode...". It tells me with my xCode I can only develop for iPhone OS 3.0 or less, so I download...
Hello, My question is in fact not bound to any programming language, i was just wondering what the height of the apple menubar (the one always on top) is? (My screen size is 1200 x 800) i was wondering what it would be excluding the menubar. (I run 10.5.8 => Leopard.) Thanks Samuel Edit: Speaking about pixels of course ...

I'm compiling and linking against a library in Snow Leopard. I have never seen an error like it: i686-apple-darwin10-g++-4.2.1: language library.a not recognized I'm compiling an application to link statically with a proprietary library and wxWidget 2.9. Have anyone seen something like this before? ...
Hi, I am about to implement simple keyboard and mouse input on osx for my engine. I want to abstract the implementation in more generic c++ classes like Keyboard and Mouse plus appropriate Listeners for portability. Anyways, I came across the Leopard HID Api (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/technotes/tn2007/tn2187.html#TNTAG9000-...
Hi all, I find there is no daytime server available in leopard/snow leopard. And after reading some documents, the approach I can think of is writing a daemon and put it under /System/Library/LaunchDaemons, so that launchd can run it. I wonder if there is a way to just enable the service rather than writing a new one myself? Thanks in...
Hi, I develop an iphone application which uses sqlite3 as a database. That time my OS X version was leopard. So add added libsqlite3.0.dylib to frameworks and compile without any problems it complied and with any problems I could run it on the device as well. This week I installed Snow Leopard on my Mac. Removing old Leopard version a...

I problem is the SDK download has been removed form Apple's website. I cant find it anywhere! Is there anything I can do??? I really don't want to u...

In its mouseDown: method, I am initiating drag operation, I have also given a NSLog in it, so that I can notice in debugger when it is clicked. Problem is: when I ...

Using Flash 8, does anyone know why Mac Leopard operating system can’t render the ‘screen’ blend mode on movieclips containing bitmaps? See the screenshots for how it looks on all other operating systems compared to Leopard (splashes remain black and white). The browser used is irrelevant to this issue. Has anyone else experienced this...
I am currently working on a project build for OSX 10.5 and up. First of all, the 10.6 users do not see this; only 10.5 users have this issue. You are not able to reproduce this on 10.6. In short: when placing an custom extended class of NSView with an overload implementation of - (void)mouseUp:(NSEvent *)theEvent the mouseUp doesn't get...
