I tried to install lazarus on a mac os x 10.4 macbook but it did not work, can any one give me a hint on how to do it.
Thanks
I used the latest 3 packages from sourceforge:
fpcsrc-2.2.4-intel-macosx.dmg
fpc-2.2.4.intel-macosx.dmg
lazarus-0.9.28.2-i386-macosx.dmg
When I click the lazarus icon nothing happens
I tried on OSX 10.6 the release 0.9.28.2 and everything works fine.

I wanted to get some code editors supporting Swift,
but as I tried to install AppCode or Xcode, I couldn't continue,
because my OS X version is 10.6.8 but these editors only support 10.9.4 or later.Any suggestions? Thank you.
Edit: (Do you know any editors supporting my version?)
Swift was introduced in Xcode version 6. Version 6 requires Mac OS 10.9.4 like you said. You aren't going to find anything for a version of Mac OS that old.
I think there are web-based services that allow you to access newer Macs. That may be your only hope.
You can now install VirtualBox on your Mac and install Linux in VirtualBox. This allows you to run Swift on older versions of Mac OS X or even on Windows besides Linux. You can find binaries for Ubuntu here.
I am trying github.com's boxen tool in my mac os (10.7.5). However, every time I try to run the project template: https://github.com/boxen/our-boxen, it complains this:
--> You must be running OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
Does that mean boxen tool can only run in Mountain Lion ?
The fact that it's throwing an explicit error means somebody took the time to put it in place for anyone running it on OS's older than Mountain Lion.
There's very likely to be some symbols / API's in the source that are 10.8 only. If you can find those API's and modify those methods to work on older OS's, then you'll have a 10.7 compatible version of Boxen and feel free to contribute your changes back to the community. Be a part of the magic of open source software!
I am working in a mac application with snowleopard.This application is created with leopard os,but this not support in lion due to some external application.So we converted this to snow leopard and work fine .Now the client need to convert this application to leopard version ,for that i am using the xcode 4.2 and lion os and convert the bsec SDK to Mac osx 10.5 and Architecture to 32_bit intel ,but we getting an error "The run destination My Mac 64-bit is not valid for Running the scheme 'AppName'."
How can avoid this error ?
I want to test this application with 10.5 os, but we have only the 10.6 & 10.7 osx,
1)where we get the leopard osx ?
2)Has the Apple issue leopard osx now?
3)Is any problem for instal the leopard os to new MAC system(iMac,Macmini,Macbook)?
I had the same problem a while back, but I'm recalling the solution from memory, as my company dropped 10.5 support meanwhile. The details might be a little bit off, but it should get you going in the right direction:
Grab the latest version of Xcode 3 from the Apple Website
Install it on a Mac. (Make sure you removed the Developer directory if this Mac had another version of Xcode already installed).
Under /Developer, locate the 10.5.sdk directory. Move this directory to a save place (outside of /Developer).
Install Xcode 4.2.
Look where Xcode 4.2 installed its sdk's. Put your previously saved 10.5.sdk directory next to it.
Restart Xcode. There should be 10.5 SDK option in the SDK drop down menu now.
I want to make a bootable dmg that already includes the 10.6.6 update in it. And when I will install the OS will be 10.6.6.
Any advice is welcome.
Have a look at this post, it covers this process in great detail.
My software is written in Qt 4.4.2 using XCode on Mac OS X 10.5. It runs fine on Mac OS X 10.5. But when it is run on Mac OS X 10.6 it shows some strange visual artefacts when drawing the drop-down menus of QComboBoxes. Apparently it affects every QComboBox.
4 people with Mac OS X 10.6 who have tried it have reported the same behaviour, so it isn't a quirk on one machine. Everything else apparently looks fine.
The combo boxes function OK, but it doesn't look great. Aesthetics are important for commercial apps, especially on Mac OS X.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour with Qt apps on Mac OS X 10.6?
Is there a workaround?
There is a patch:

But it appears to only partially address the problem on Qt 4.4. See:
