Mac OS X v10.4 "Tiger" was released on April 29, 2005. (...) On January 10, 2006, Apple released the first Intel-based Macs along with the 10.4.4 update to Tiger. (...) Only PowerPC Macs can be booted from retail copies of the Tiger client DVD, but there is a Universal DVD of Tiger Server 10.4.7 (8K1079) that can boot both PowerPC and Intel Macs.

The tiger disc's I baught off amazon and I checked the disc's for any visible damage and they are in good condition. they came in the original packaging with the books. the image on the disc itself is its black with a siver/grey X with an apple logo above it with "Mac OS X Tiger includes Xcode2 install DVD" to the left of the X and the copyrite info on the right side of the X.
wich brings me to the idea I had and then I can add an external dvd after the fact possibly. But My question is if I try to install them using a newer mac with a dvd drive set to install tiger onto my external drive via USB then once the install is compleate re install the hard drive inside this tower will it then see there is an os system on the hard drive?
The other option i concidered is I have an 8GB thumb drive I read i could copy the disc to the thumb drive and boot the system that way all I would have to do is format the thumb drive to a bootable format. Is this possible with My mac or is it too old for that option?
If I am reading
evermac.com correctly, the earliest version of the the Mac OS that shipped on iMac G5 A1058 is 10.3.5 and two of the iMac versions shipped with 10.4. If your Panther media is a retail copy of the install disc(s), it is probably 10.3 and it will likely not work on your iMac. You are probably going to have to stick with 10.4 or later.
it is a Power PC and came with Panther (10.3.x), not Tiger. However, a full installer Tiger disk should work. You'd need a retail copy - you can check with Apple to see if they still have some available, but I think not.
Intel 11th generation Tiger Lake processors use Intel Volume Management Device (Intel VMD) technology to optimize data processing and power consumption. If you install a retail copy of Windows, you will need to download and install the IRST driver so Windows can detect a storage drive.
I no longer have the original install discs for my temperamental iMac G5 (10.4.11) but I need to reinstall Tiger. I downloaded a universal disk image and created a bootable partition on my external USB/FireWire drive. However, when the installer prompts me to restart, the Mac simply reboots in the ordinary way, ignoring the installer entirely. I am coming to the conclusion that this Mac is only going to boot if I use discs. How can I burn the DMG to a physical disc?
For reference, only the macOS versions listed here officially support being used as a bootable installer, however none of them are compatible with this model of Mac: How to create a bootable installer for macOS
You're very welcome! We're glad we can help lend a hand. As for those newer Macs your dad worked on, it looks like he has using High Sierra, which does support creating a bootable installer as mentioned here: How to create a bootable installer for macOS
I know, there is no Recovery mode in 10.4.xx. nor a network/internet recovery anymore for those old devices. So only local boot sources are an option for me. So I insert a CD or DVD mentioned above and then go to change the boot disk in System Preferences. It sees the CD/DVD to be a bootable option as "Mac OS X Install DVD" next to the local HDD.After the restart it spins and reads for a while. But then it stops and the OS is loaded from the original 80GB HDD. If there is the other, non-Apple 40GB HDD present and I try some alternative boot key combo, it ends up in a blue/purple-ish like screen with a folder icon with blinking questioner/macos face again. I also tried the above with the origonal CD/DVD mechanic. Same result. I am now trying to create a bootable USB with Tiger OS X. And then try to boot from it.
PowerPC Macs almost NEVER boot from burned system optical disks. You need an actual pressed retail install disk for Tiger or Leopard, and they are very hard to find today. I checked Amazon yesterday and they had no listings for proper, factory-produced full retail install drives for Leopard.
Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger was initially available in a PowerPC edition, with an Intel edition released beginning at Mac OS X 10.4.4 Tiger. There is no universal version of the client operating system, although Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Server was made available on a universal DVD from version Mac OS X 10.4.7 Tiger. While Apple shipped the PowerPC edition bundled with PowerPC-based Macs and also sold it as a separate retail box, the only way to obtain the Intel version was to buy an Intel-based Mac bundled with it. However, it was possible to buy the 'restore' DVDs containing the Intel version through unofficial channels such as eBay, and officially through Apple if one could provide proof of purchase of the appropriate Intel Mac. These grey-colored 'restore' DVDs supplied with new Macs, are designed to only restore on the model of Mac that they are intended for. However, they can be modified to work on any Intel Mac. The retail PowerPC-only DVD can be used on any PowerPC-based Mac supported by Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.
Shortly before the release of Mac OS X Tiger, the computer retailer TigerDirect.com, Inc. filed a lawsuit against Apple, alleging that Apple infringed TigerDirect.com's trademark with the Mac OS X Tiger operating system.[24]
So I've recently resurected a broken macbook, replaced new parts and it was fully working, although the hard drive had the old mac os x and bunch of files that weren't mine, so I decided to delete it all via disk utility ant reinstall a new mac os from usb. I made a bootable usb through transmac but the computer won't recognize it while booting while holding option button.. The recovery menu offers to install Lion mac os, but it fails with message "This item is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later" or smth like that and I'm stuck with no mac os x.. I have another macbook laptop, which has tiger 10.4 operating system and I can't make a bootable usb with that old mac because it doesn't support most of the programs, could someone help?
What were you booted from to be able to run Disk Utility and wipe it? This is really a lollypop that you dropped in the dirt and want someone else to clean it up for you! I'm sure you don't have what you need like the original 10.6.3 installation disk or a retail version of 10.6, right?
I don't have the original disk:( Old hard drive had an old mac os x installed already, so I wiped it and thought that I'd install a new mac os via usb like I used to do. But I get all kinds of different errors:( Biggest problem is, that macbook can't recognize the bootable usb stick
In the simplest case your optical drive still works and you either have theoriginal gray install disk for this machine or a black retail disk of Tigeror Leopard. However, you can not buy it new, it is abandon ware. If you don'thave the disks you can try to buy one 2nd hand, however keep in mind that thegrey install disks are model-specific and cannot be used on a different Macmodel, so better get a black retail disk. Downloading a copy off the net isagainst Apple's Terms of Service and considered ethically wrong by some.
If you copy the contents of an Apple install or retail CD image (ISO) to a harddisk and try to boot and install from it, you may see a message that this isnot possible. Look on the net for a work around. I did not try this.
The retail version of Tiger includes the Xcode Tools installer package on the Install DVD. However, it does not get installed as part of the general Tiger installation. You need to install it separately. Because some of the software is of general value beyond the needs of developers, I recommend installing it.
This utility, which functions much like the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences, comes in handy if you can't get your Mac to start up from a particular hard drive or get it to shift to an alternative bootable hard drive as its default choice. By selecting this command, you can specify any currently available bootable drive as the default. Once you've done this, click Restart to reboot the Mac using that drive.
Even if you don't choose to make the second partition bootable, you can still use it to store backups of important personal files (such as documents and photos) that are stored on the first partition. Or (as I discuss more in Chapter 6), you can choose to store Mac OS X's virtual-memory swap files or even your entire home directory on the second partition (to protect them from problems with the boot volume).
Using the Previous Systems folder. One weakness of the Archive option is that the archived system is not bootable. In addition, the Installer does not offer a "switch back" option. Thus, if you decide that upgrading was a mistake (which is very unlikely!) and you want to return to the previous version of Mac OS X, there's no easy way to do a reverse exchange. For that reason, make sure that your Mac OS X volume is backed up before doing the upgrade. Then if you decide to go back, you can restore the old Mac OS X version from your backup.
On another thread someone asked about why tiger cubs need the PE background and the "PE approach to public equities" vs. the MMHF style. We have debated the career tracks and the "betterness" of one vs. the other, but I want to avoid that. I also know we are increasingly seeing pod shops analysts transition to SM/tiger cubs/ longer duration investment shops, but I can't reconcile what are supposed to be the major differences, and was hoping someone with a more intimate understanding of some of the longer time horizon SMs could elucidate.
