Mac Os 10 6 Installation Guide

Installation on macOS Table of Contents. Using Packages; Using the bundled PHP; Compiling PHP on macOS; This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on macOS. PHP is bundled with Macs, and compiling is similar to the Unix installation guide. Okay, I figured out that everytime I booted onto my Mac OS 10.12.5 (I setup a dual boot system on 10.12.5 and 10.13 on 2 seperated SSD ) then restart, the computer then boot into Mac OS 10.13 just fine and works great. But if I try to boot into 10.13 from a fresh start, the computer just crash on booting screen. Configure PHP for your Moodle installation Mac OS X 10.6 Server - No PHP installation needed. The Mac OS X 10.6.5 Server (SnowLeopard) comes with PHP 5.3.3 and a lot of PHP extensions. This would be the best choice for Moodle 1.9.x and for Moodle 2.0 on a Mac OS X Server.

Virtualising Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server/Rosetta

Virtualisation Software

• Parallels Desktop [£69.99 inc VAT - 14 day free trial available]
  
• VMWare Fusion [£70.00 inc VAT - 30 day free trial available]
• Oracle VirtualBox [FREE - Open source under GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2]

Instructions

• MacBook Pro 15' (Early 2011 model - MacBookPro8,2) [released after 10.6.3]
• Mac mini (Late 2012 model - Macmini6,2) [released after 10.6.3]

Preparation

• Obtain your preferred virtualisation software (see list above)
• Obtain the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install disc:
• If you don't have one, it is available by calling the Apple Store (in the UK 0800 048 0408) - you cannot buy it via the Apple online store
• You need part number 'MC588Z/A' which is specifically 'Mac OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Server Unlimited Clients Single Licence International' (£14.00 inc VAT in the UK) - not the normal client edition (part number MC573Z/A)
• Create an ISO disk image of the Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD:
1. Go to Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
2. Insert your Mac OS X 10.6 Server install DVD
3. In Disk Utility, in the top left, click on the icon for the optical drive not the indented line for the disc volume
4. Go to File menu > New > Disk Image from device name, where device name is the OS name of your optical drive e.g. disk1
5. In the save dialogue box enter a suitable filename e.g. 'Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 ISO.dmg'. Leave Image Format with the default setting of compressed.
6. Wait for the image to be created and then eject the original DVD
7. Archive/backup the 'Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 ISO.dmg' disc image that you just created
• Purchase/install/update your preferred virtualisation software
• Make sure you have plenty of free hard disk space (a basic 10.6 Server install is about ~8.5GB before your own applications and you'll need at least twice that if you need to clone it for multiple installations), so we recommend at least 25GB of free space
• Make sure your actual, physical Mac has a working internet connection e.g. use a web browser to go to https://www.apple.com and see if you can view a web page
• Create a dedicated folder to share files/documents with the virtual environment e.g. in your Documents folder create a folder titled '106SharedFolder'

Parallels Desktop v9 (or later) Instructions

Mac OS X 10.6 Server Notes

Security Notes

• Don't use Apple Safari as it is no longer updated and thus it is not secure - use a supported web browser e.g. Roccat or TenFourFox
• Don't use Apple Mail as it is no longer updated and thus it is not secure (unless you are running this virtual Mac specifically to run Eudora use a mail client in your primary OS instead)
• Don't install unsupported web plug-ins and disable old plugins:
1. Go to 106 Server HD (or whatever you have named the virtual hard disk) > Library
2. If there is no folder named 'Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled)', create a new folder named that
3. Open the 'Internet Plug-Ins' folder and move all the items in it to the 'Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled)' folder
NOTE: To move the files you will need to authenticate as an administrator of the computer.
4. Restart the virtual machine (go to Apple menu > Restart)

General Notes

• As it is a server installation automatic login is off by default - you can turn it on in Apple menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options > Automatic Login
• There are extra folders on the root of the hard disk titled 'Groups' and 'Shared Items' - this is normal, you don't need to worry about them, but do not delete them.
• There is an extra folder in Applications titled 'Server' - this is normal, you don't need to worry about it - it contains the server administrator software, but do not delete the folder/software.

Docker Desktop for Mac is the Community version of Docker for Mac.You can download Docker Desktop for Mac from Docker Hub.

By downloading Docker Desktop, you agree to the terms of the Docker Software End User License Agreement and the Docker Data Processing Agreement. Call of duty black ops 2 mac free.

What to know before you install

Relationship to Docker Machine: Installing Docker Desktop on Mac does not affect machines you created with Docker Machine. You have the option to copy containers and images from your local default machine (if one exists) to the Docker Desktop HyperKit VM. Whenyou are running Docker Desktop, you do not need Docker Machine nodes running locally (or anywhere else). With Docker Desktop, you have a new, nativevirtualization system running (HyperKit) which takes the place of theVirtualBox system.

System requirements

Your Mac must meet the following requirements to successfully install Docker Desktop:

• Mac hardware must be a 2010 or a newer model, with Intel's hardware support for memory management unit (MMU) virtualization, including Extended Page Tables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode. You can check to see if your machine has this support by running the following command in a terminal: sysctl kern.hv_support

  If your Mac supports the Hypervisor framework, the command prints kern.hv_support: 1.

• macOS must be version 10.14 or newer. That is, Mojave or Catalina. We recommend upgrading to the latest version of macOS.

  If you experience any issues after upgrading your macOS to version 10.15, you must install the latest version of Docker Desktop to be compatible with this version of macOS.

  Note: Docker supports Docker Desktop on the most recent versions of macOS. Docker Desktop currently supports macOS Mojave and macOS Catalina.

  How to put microsoft office on mac. As new major versions of macOS are made generally available, Docker stops supporting the oldest version and support the newest version of macOS.

• At least 4 GB of RAM.

• VirtualBox prior to version 4.3.30 must not be installed as it is not compatible with Docker Desktop.

What's included in the installer

The Docker Desktop installation includes Docker Engine, Docker CLI client, Docker Compose, Notary, Kubernetes, and Credential Helper.

Install and run Docker Desktop on Mac

1. Apfs mac journaled. Double-click Docker.dmg to open the installer, then drag the Docker icon to the Applications folder. Best web browser mac os x.

2. Double-click Docker.app in the Applications folder to start Docker. (In the example below, the Applications folder is in 'grid' view mode.)

   The Docker menu in the top status bar indicates that Docker Desktop is running, and accessible from a terminal. Canon 220 240v driver for windows 10.

   If you've just installed the app, Docker Desktop launches the onboarding tutorial. The tutorial includes a simple exercise to build an example Docker image, run it as a container, push and save the image to Docker Hub.

3. Click the Docker menu () to seePreferences and other options.

4. Select About Docker to verify that you have the latest version.

Congratulations! You are now successfully running Docker Desktop.

If you would like to rerun the tutorial, go to the Docker Desktop menu and select Learn.

Uninstall Docker Desktop

To unistall Docker Desktop from your Mac:

1. From the Docker menu, select Troubleshoot and then select Uninstall.
2. Click Uninstall to confirm your selection.

Note: Uninstalling Docker Desktop will destroy Docker containers and images local to the machine and remove the files generated by the application.

Switch between Stable and Edge versions

Docker Desktop allows you to switch between Stable and Edge releases. However, you can only have one version of Docker Desktop installed at a time. Switching between Stable and Edge versions can destabilize your development environment, particularly in cases where you switch from a newer (Edge) channel to an older (Stable) channel.

For example, containers created with a newer Edge version of Docker Desktop maynot work after you switch back to Stable because they may have been createdusing Edge features that aren't in Stable yet. Keep this in mind asyou create and work with Edge containers, perhaps in the spirit of a playgroundspace where you are prepared to troubleshoot or start over.

Experimental features are turned on by default on Edge releases. However, when you switch from a Stable to an Edge release, you must turn on the experimental features flag to access experimental features. From the Docker Desktop menu, click Preferences > Command Line and then turn on the Enable experimental features toggle. Click Apply & Restart for the changes to take effect.

To safely switch between Edge and Stable versions, ensure you save images and export the containers you need, then uninstall the current version before installing another. For more information, see the section Save and Restore data below.

Save and restore data

You can use the following procedure to save and restore images and container data. For example, if you want to switch between Edge and Stable, or to reset your VM disk:

1. Use docker save -o images.tar image1 [image2 .] to save any images you want to keep. See save in the Docker Engine command line reference.

2. Use docker export -o myContainner1.tar container1 to export containers you want to keep. See export in the Docker Engine command line reference.

3. Uninstall the current version of Docker Desktop and install a different version (Stable or Edge), or reset your VM disk.

4. Use docker load -i images.tar to reload previously saved images. See load in the Docker Engine.

5. Use docker import -i myContainer1.tar to create a filesystem image corresponding to the previously exported containers. See import in the Docker Engine.
