I have install VMWARE (virtual Machine) on Windows 7. And have installed Mac OS Leopard 10.5.5 image on that Virtual Machine.
Now i want to install Xcode 5.1.1 on that Mac os, but it gives above Error. Please help me how and which version to install on that Mac OS Leopard 10.5.5.
Xcode 5.1 requires OS X 10.8 or 10.9. Xcode 3.1.4 is the latest version that runs on Leopard.
When i was programming with xcode with vmware i didn`t managed to download it from the store and make it run in vmware, what i did is i downloaded a Mac OS with preinstalled xcode in it.
Also see the vmware options!
Xcode 6 beta's won't allow distribution.
since may 2014 you have to use 5.1.1 to distribute apps.
I only have xcode 5.1
I am about to release an app and I am just wondering if I have to go back to osx 10.9 just to be able to update to xcode 5.1.1 so I can release apps again?
Sadly yes, you can currently (July 2014) only submit apps from Mountain Lion or Mavericks, using the latest App Store version of Xcode. Only the GM releases will be able to let you submit apps - at least that's how Apple have done it in the past.
You cannot use beta versions of either OS X or Xcode to submit apps.
You can always install Mavericks and Xcode 5.1.1 on an external drive and use that version to submit. Gives you best of both worlds on the same hardware.
This Post seems to work in some cases:
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
rm -r ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/com.apple.appstore.savedState
rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
rm -r /private/var/folders/*/*/*/com.apple.appstore
If it doesn't work, you could simply set up a Virtual Machine with 10.9 Guest. (Of course, only on a OSX host without any further Hacks)
...I've looked pretty carefully (I believe), and have been unsuccessful at getting an installation of Git for my Mac.
For various reasons, I'm running 10.6.8 of Mac OS X and will not be changing that anytime soon.
I've already gathered and installed the bundle exposed here:
https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git
The installation instructions are pretty clear, and it's obvious to me that the package installed. But any attempts to use the git client from the command line result in an "Illegal Instruction" error.
I've sifted pretty carefully through information available here:
http://git-scm.com/book/en/Getting-Started-Installing-Git
There is another bundle that seems to be available. It is called "GitHub for Mac 1.7.5, but it appears to require Mac OS X 10.7 or later.
Has anyone else encountered this difficulty? Must I build from source?
I'm a couple of hours of reading and hacking into this effort? Is there something obvious that I've not considered?
Yes, I've had the same exact problem, and what I did is installed an earlier build from here:
https://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/
I'm running 10.6.8 and installed the newest build there, 1.8.4.2
SourceForge only has 1.9.0 and 1.8.5.2
http://sourceforge.net/projects/git-osx-installer/reviews?source=navbar
Someone on the reviews said they had trouble with both and went back to 1.7. I would try that if 1.8.4.2 doesn't work.
I was able to run the config commands without an illegal instruction error, at least.
I had this problem and was able to install a working version using Homebrew.
# first uninstall the broken version
# mount the DMG for the broken version using Finder
# "type" this with the tab key! it saves typing and fixes the version number
cd /Volumes/Git\ 2.0.1\ Snow\ Leopard\ Intel\ Universal/
./uninstall.sh
# make bash forget about the uninstalled binary
hash -r
cd
# now install the working version
# assumes you have Homebrew installed
brew install git
git version
I had this today on Snow Leopard after running the suggested git installer from git-scm. Really horrible. Found that installing Macports using their old Snow Leopard package and then
sudo port install git +svn +doc +bash_completion +gitweb
installs git plus its dependencies and git now works fine; version 1.9.3 installed and working on 10.6.8.
I had the same problem. There are various methods for downloading and installing git - Try macports or homebrew. The thing that finally worked for me was having xcode 3.2.6 installed with the additional command line tools - version 3.2 that comes with the leopard install disk wasn't enough. You can install xcode etc. from the disk and then run software update to upgrade it to 3.2.6.
The latest build for Snow Leopard in the official git-osx-installer repo is Git 2.3.5 currently. You can download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/git-osx-installer/files/git-2.3.5-intel-universal-snow-leopard.dmg/download using web browser. This installation works for me on OS X 10.6.8.
Or you can check yourself for a newer version: http://sourceforge.net/projects/git-osx-installer/files/
Yes - it seems that it does not support the older OS version (mine was 10.6.8). I upgraded to the newest Mac OS 10.9.4 (the installation will take a while), reinstalled the Git software (note that it will ask for xcode to be installed, which I proceeded), and everything works fine from there. Hope this helps.

To quote:
Does GitHub for Mac run on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard?
No, GitHub for Mac requires OS X 10.7 (Lion) or higher.
We made this decision because the app relies on a number of
technologies which are not available in Mac OS X 10.6 or earlier. We
want to provide the best experience possible for the app's users, so
we've made the choice to only support 10.7 and above, and not make
earlier versions available.
I have installed Inkscape 0.48.2 on my brand new mac mini running Mavericks but I can never get it to work as it crashes. It once asked me about the X11 server which I have installed but it never worked ever since. What should I do?
Make sure you installed Xquartz for the X server. http://xquartz.macosforge.org/
To see the logs you can try from the command line:
/Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/MacOS/Inkscape
I upgraded my OSX to Lion. As I went to install couchdb locally I found that the installer link for mac on http://couchdb.apache.org was gone and replaced with "Mac OS X binaries coming soon". I haven't used couchdb before but I know it was there at one point.
A friend sent me a copy zipped up which he installed on his Snow Leopard OSX. This installed and I could access the Admin Console, but I was unable to access futon.
Is there a reason the button is missing, or is there another way to install it?
My guess is that the site is detecting my operating system and they just aren't ready for 10.7.5 yet. But How do I go about installing a local version?
To install I followed the steps in this post Couch DB installation not working on Mac OSx Lion.
It worked like a charm step by step.
The new version 1.2.1 has recently been released and packed for Mac OSX. You can download it from http://couchdb.apache.org/#download or from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=/couchdb/packages/mac/1.2.1/Apache-CouchDB-1.2.1.zip
