Hi Everyone --
I have a G5 iMac that's several years old. It's currently running
10.4.11. I just purchased an iPod Touch and discovered that it won't
activate or sync with iTunes 9.x which is the newest version that
10.4.11 will run. According to Apple's site, which I should've checked
Your G5 iMac will run up to 10.5.whatever, mine has it and runs perfectly...
If you can borrow a copy of 10.5 you can install it, or Apple, MacAuthority
will be glad to sell you a copy... You also might check Amazon, sometimes

to get this new iTouch working on the iMac for my niece. I'm finding
that the 10.5.x disk is pretty expensive. Amazon has it for $130. I
haven't been able to find it online any cheaper. If I hadn't already

I am running a G5 Mac on system 10.5.8 and it works well, but when I
switched systems I was forced to buy or update a lot of solfware.
Some, like Photoshop, would not work any longer, so I no longer have
that expensive program.
When I switched systems, I had some other work done,

That's very generous of you to offer your disk. I would be willing to
drive out to borrow it, and purchase a replacement if something were
to happen to it, but if the os disk is Tiger, it won't work for me.
Tiger is 10.4.x, which I'm currently running. I need 10.5.x, which is

I wrote to the programmer tonight, here is what he uses:
As far as the program, you are right, there are lot's of pieces and each one is
coded in a different language. It seems silly to do it that way, but it's like
