I get exactly the same errors. I am using the volume release of the CS3 applications, not sure if this would cause the problem. The only difference I believe is that the apps do not need activation.

 

I tried making the apps load using Rosetta but that didnt make any difference.

 

Any suggestions to fixing this would be appreciated.

 

I have found a solution that works on my hackintosh (AMD with JAS 10.4.8)

Simply replace the AppleSMBIOS.kext with this one AppleSMBIOS.kext.zip

The CS3 applications will no longer crash when registering :thumbsup_anim:

NICE FIND!

 

Confirmed working on 10.4.7, 10.4.8, and 10.4.9 (Intel and AMD)

 

For those of you who don't get it, just replace the AppleSMBIOS.kext after extracting into /System/Library/Extensions replacing the old one (you need your admin password)

 

Then open the Terminal, cd into /System/Library, remove the files with rm Extensions.*, and then repair your disk permissions.

 

Restart and Presto! Programs may seem slow the first time loading but then work consecutively ^_^

I use 10.4.5 updated to 10.4.7 (through JAS update).

 

I avoid 10.4.8 and later because there's too much HW not functioning (like my Radeon X1600's openGL crashing after a few seconds when a game is started.) I'm also fed up with completely re-installing the whole shabang if things go wrong. It's clear that 10.4.8 and later are more suited to Core-cpu's while 10.4.5 gives largest quantity of HW recognised (like USB devices etc.) and is better suited to P4 technology. I have a P4 630 system with i915P-chipset equipped mainboard.

 

I also installed from 10.4.5 because if I install from 10.4.6 JAS DVD some components don't get recognised (e.g. my Logitech Pro 4000 webcam and MSI bluetooth USB adaptor). After 10.4.5 each revision DVD had less HW functioning so avoid these if you can. IMHO 10.4.3 and 10.4.5 are the best versions for non Core-systems)

 

Ofcourse if you do the update from a 10.4.5 to 10.4.7 remind yourself to temporarily copy the Sync-utility out from Applications (and copy it back after the update) because the one in the 10.4.7 JAS upgrade only works from updating 10.4.6 to 10.4.7!

 

 

Anyway, you can add the following apps to the list (though some are supposedly for 10.4.8 and higher; they do work on lower versions)

 

Shiira 1.2.2 and 2.0 (webbrowser)

TrimTheFat 0.7 (a free program like XSlimmer)

VirtueDesktops 0.54 beta 2

Disco Public Beta, v1.0.1 & 1.0.2 (CD burning app)

Toast 7

Parallels (tested following builds 1848, 1884, 1922, 1970, 3036, 3186, 3188)

VMWare Fusion (tried builds 41385, 43733 & 48339)

ClamXAV 1.0.4 (antivirus)

Onyx 1.6.9 (cleanup-util)

Clean App (1.5.1 & 2.0.3) (cleanup util)

Aqua4Itunes (iTunes GUI changer) (tried both 7.1 and 7.2 with their respective iTunes)

Itunes 7.2

QuickTime 7.1.6 (change version.plist to get it to work)

PhotoShop CS3 Beta 2 (change version.plist to get it to work) (Bridge doesn't work on 10.4.5/6/7 though)

MacTheripper 2.6.6 (DVD ripping)

HandBrake 0.7.1 (DVD Ripping)

Open Office 2.1 rc2 (Intel build 20061130)

XBench 1.3 (benchmarking)

Cinebench 9.5 (benchmarking)

PDF-Shrink (to make PDF's smaller)

CUPS-PDF 2.0.4 (virtual PDF-printer)

Barcode Generator 1.0 b8

WidgetManager v1.3.1

Widgets.prefpane 1.0

GioFX ICursor 1.3.0 (pointer toy)

Skype 2.6.0.72 (beta) & 2.6.0.140 (audio from the webcam's MIC work fine, video doesn't not even with macam)

Macam 9.1 (the standalone program works perfectly with my logitech pro 4000)

Macam Component (works with quicktime pro but with Skype only audio works)

CyberDuck 2.7.3 (FTP)

Coloquy (IRC)

 

I also tested a few Games :-)

 

WingNuts 2 (nice 2D shooter, very cute)

Sketchfighter 4000 (amazing looking 2D shooter looks like it's drawn on paper with a marker and a pencil)

Darwinia Demo (interesting 3D game, I used this to test several OSX86 releases and Radeon X1600 drivers)

SauerBraten (3D FPS, looks okay. Used this to test video driver-releases too. Details can be find on this site)

Outnumbered (3D shoot'm up. A very simple textured 3D game. Looks nice though)

Pac The Man X (guess what this is ;-) )

Cocoa mad race (a simple 2D above view space race game. Very addictive)

Ultranium (breakout game)

 

I hope this is helpfull

 

Cheers

this works for my box but now my System Profiler and About this Mac says I've got a Pentium 4 running @ 4Ghz. So what do I need to do to get the system to report the correct speed (in my case P4@3Ghz) anyone with an answer for me just PM me

thanks for the fix BTW!

Hey,

 

I had a question about Logic Pro 7.2. I've made several searches in this forum for Logic Pro 7.2. Actually I am not running after a crack version and I am about to buy original box Logic Pro 7.2 UB. I wonder if this app works in Hackintosh with its usb dongle. I read some posts dated 2005 - 2006 as USB dongle doesnt work!? Can someone update me if it works without any problem on Mac OS X based on HAckintosh configurations later 10 4 8.

 

Your advices are really needed as I don't want to waste loads of cash for an original non working Logic Pro 7.2 by my setup.

 

Thanks all in advance.

Running Kalyway 10.5.2.

 

Native Programs included with OS are working fine, though I have not tested all.

 

Installed from outside, that are working:

 

toast,

firefox,

office2008.

mozilla thunderbird

Adium

Growl

New transmission

 

it's a pain in the ass to minimize windows and then trying to find the same one again.

is there anyway / software that we can create some kind of toolbar on side or bottom, which

works more like windows? so a person can minimize / maximize exactly the window that he requires?

 

these little tiny annoyances make mac only have 3% share..
