The serial number is usually written right on the CD. Alsoft tracks the owner of that number, and will issue updates to the owner. I don't know what they'll do in the event someone transfers the license - best to check with them. Typically the upgrade is not terribly expensive. You'll be able to download it to your 10.4 volume, then use it from there to repair your 10.5 volume. > I have to rely on Booting to make use of the CD.

I would suggest NOT using this to fix your 10.5.5 volume unless you get verification that it won't break anything. You can safely use it to fix your 10.4.4 volume. If you can't get it to boot using your C key, try choosing it in System Preferences=> Startup Disk -- Bill Christensen <http://greenbuilder.com/contact/> Green Building Professionals Directory: <http://directory.greenbuilder.com> Sustainable Building Calendar: <http://www.greenbuilder.com/calendar/> Green Real Estate: <http://www.greenbuilder.com/realestate/> Straw Bale Registry: <http://sbregistry.greenbuilder.com/> Books/videos/software: <http://bookstore.greenbuilder.com/> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
