Greetings from AZ,

We'd like to somehow, preferably at no or low cost, get 10.3.4 on my wifes iMac Snow G3.
She's currently using 9.2.2 and has both a 10.0.4 and a 10.1 disc from my daughters iMac.
Do we have to load the 10.0.4 disc and then work our way up the upgrades on the Mac Support site or ... what ? CAN we even get from 9.2 to 10.3.4 ?

FWIW ... I have the 10.3.4 install discs from my eMac but her iMac just spits 'em out.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

FrankAZ

The discs for the eMac only work on the eMac. If you'd like to get 10.3 on the iMac, you'll need to actually purchase it. There is no need to install intermediate versions.

Not for free...but as mentioned you should be able to get a 10.3.x package fairly cheap now that 10.4 is out.

as fpr using your eMac install/restore disc(s) - your eMac and its software came with a license agreement....have a read through it and you will see that it is only licensed for the *one* computer and installing elsewhere is a violation of the terms of the agreement.
Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity...
