Apple Mac OSX Leopard v10.5 ISO – OSX

OS X Leopard

The wait has finally come to an end!

An interesting release which many people would be looking forward to. Apple OS X v.10.5 “Leopard” is leaked two days in advance before the official retail release!

I’m not sure why OS X leaks out before the launch. This is not the first time something of this sort is happening. Anyway it’s a fantastic release and I’m going to down this & dress up my MacBook Pro with the big cat, Leopard.

I’ve already posted an article on what’s new and notable in Leopard.

Been around in some Private Trackers, you got to wait for sometime for the torrent to appear in Public Trackers.

Release Name: APPLE.MAC.OSX.LEOPARD.V10.5.ISO-OSX

    @ mac is overpriced junk

    I partially agree with you, Apple’s stuff is not cheap. But think of it this way…

    Mac/OS X/Apple are like hookers, they are both expensive but totally worth it!

    SO funny, when people still say Macs are overpriced. Yes, if you compare to low end Dells.

    Just compare them to the same league, like Alienware, and see who is more expensive, idiots!

    Now that macs are Intel based and all, is it possible to run this OS on a real computer (ie, a PC – a non-Macintosh)? Or does it still just run on macs?

  13. Rob
    October 23rd, 2007 | 20:28

    OS X runs fine on PCs. You just need to replace the kernel and sometimes fiddle around with some kexts to make everything work. Leopard 9A559 (the last build) works fine on my $400 year-old laptop. Cheaper than a MacBook and runs better.

  15. October 23rd, 2007 | 20:32
  16. October 23rd, 2007 | 20:33

    @13,
    It *can* run. But from what I hear, the performance might be good and there’ll tend to be some glitches. OS X is meant to run in your Apple hardware (irrespective if it’s Intel Proccy or not) only.

    October 23rd, 2007 | 20:34

    Macs ARE more expensive compared to PCs with the same specs. I personally think the Mac OS is worth paying the extra money for, but I can completely understand if someone doesn’t want to. It’s up to the individual. For instance, I’m not paying extra money for a black Macbook compared to a white one. That’s just a ripoff and is ridiculous. I’m happy with my Mac, but I can’t lie about them being more expensive than PCs. They are.

    @13

    Real computer? Sorry, a Mac is every bit as real as your “real computer”. Except it can run OSX and you can’t. Buy a Mac or suck it up, you won’t run OSX normally on your computer without a bit of hacking.

    frequently, SPECS of two computers compared do matter, but also the quality of the parts to produce those specs must be considered.

    many companies are cutting corners in production that yield high failure rates and bizarre computer behavior.

    with computers, most of the time, the old cliche holds true…

    “You get what you pay for.”

    my macintosh has run or IS running:
    xp pro 32bit
    vista ult 64bit
    macosx
    linux (Ubuntu someday if i am motivated. LOL)

    all natively. no emulation needed anymore. true intel xeon dual core processors in the current mac pro towers.

  30. October 23rd, 2007 | 21:00

    @ 27,
    Yeah man. Heard of Bootcamp? Also you can run Windows side by side with OS X with VM Fusionware or Parallels. You also have the option of Wine – where you can install Windows program in OS X. But once you start to use Mac, you’ll never want to switch back to Windows.

    mac benefits:

    - you cant play most games, and also many other software … pc users are so dumb, they can play all games and software.
    - if you want to upgrade, buy a new mac, only idiot pc users upgrade by only buying the few needed hardware…. why do it cheap if you can do it more expensive, i mean if your car gets a flat tire, dont you buy a new car too?
    - its too expensive, why not pay almost 2 times more for the same performance?
    - we mac users can sniff the corks up our bums and pretend our sh1t doesnt smell bad.

    we mac users are uber smart and nobody can understand our amazing way of reasoning…

    A Mac is exactly like the ipod….A good looking overpriced item,that compared to other products looses in the most important things…performance and value …..but the damn ifans or idumbasses still buy it because its like hot! like way popular!……godd

    Just next time a new ipod or mac comes along….compare it to the competition and see who ends up winning……….honestly if you see a mac doing something better than a common pc tell me, coz I haven’t seen it.

    @38 – look for osx86 project, that is the PC version.

    At everyone else. Mac is mostly a hardware company, that is what they do best and they make some damn nice systems. in fact, a lot of people buy Macs just to run Windows. Like the imac, that thing is pure style, aluminum and silicon oxide and NO mess. Sony has something similar, but, well, it sucks. I have been through the benchmarks, even the puny mac mini can take down most of your other brands as far as Vista Performance, and the Imac is beter than your higher end PC’s, then the mac Pro is well…. a BEAST that alienware will NEVER come close to. Come on, an 8-core Xeon desktop!

    Also, $149 is the retail price for leopard, that is the Ultimate edition.. because well, they don’t have other options… OS X is also nice because it runs fine on older systems, so no pressure to upgrade and no activation, apple just trusts you :)

  48. macattack
    October 23rd, 2007 | 22:06

    us mac owners understand that mac and pc are two completely different things, for one mac is pretty much virus free, the pc…lets not spit out how many viruses are created for those.

    Mac can run windows fluently, has the best look, we all know that Vista just tried to copy Macs form,but…failed to make it even near as good as Mac.

    with Leopard we could retrieve files from 2 years back with ease, with windows you can’t ever find a file.

    Mac’s are innovative, sexy, worth the money, and the best thing…you never have to use the common Windows alt, control, delete, why? because Macs never go bogus on its users.

The macbook pro still costs £1700 a year down the line!!

And yes, I am a PC/vista user…u could use more ram, but what do i need it for…?,.,,,,the only reason you could possibly need this Leopard os, is if you NEED to run some fancy photo or movie editing software…with over 300 new ‘upgrades’ (spam) …hippocrates’s, who claim a pc comes with spam programs…i could go on and on….

Good god even you think companies like creative do better MP3 Players then apple is that why the iPods are winning hands down, never like creative will never use a creative MP3 i’m happy with my MacBook, iMac & and iPhone, and can’t wait for Leopard

    Shame to say i have windows XP on my computers i need it for one or two minor things, sure even XP is better then Vista, i’m soo glad they wasted billions on development on vista, lololol

    October 24th, 2007 | 04:07

    @48 Thanks I had no idea it was reasonable to compare consumer pc’s to workstations, if that’s the case then pleanty of workstation systems use dual socket 771 intel quad cores, I suggest you look at Tyan for that one. Furthermore I suggest you check out their quad socket F configuration supporting 16 cores and 64GB of RAM.

    @56 You bet, you should then consider the changes in memory, cpu and chipset and video as well since the change to Santa Rosa. Yeah the price is the same, just the whole thing about CPU’s, RAM capacity, Video and chipset have changed.

    If you want to mis-represent yourself thats fine, just don’t play your claims off as truth when they’re full of bs. That goes for both of you.

    October 24th, 2007 | 04:33

    yeah it should be, generally these discs are formatted for booting now instead of having you do it manually. Even on the hacked discs it works that way.

    You should be set once you get the file.

    mac users:
    easiest solution:
    applications/utilities/Disk Utility.app

    use this application to restore your newly downloaded diskimage to a partition of an external harddrive.
    also, double click the diskimage and NOTE ITS EXACT NAME, you must rename the external harddrive partition the exact thing.

    restart your mac holding the OPTION KEY DOWN

    choose the external partition when asked.

    install normally.

    Do Macs get viruses indianpunk? No, they don’t. Because viruses for mac don’t exist.

    Now, the last time I checked my PC for viruses with Norton (antivirus software that isn’t neccessary for Macs) I found over 1,500.

    Lastly, maybe the reason you don’t understand why Macs are better machines than PCs is because (1) you can’t use grammar correctly, and (2) you can’t back up your arguments with any evidence other than swears. Oh, and Die Apple Die at the end…I bet you have never even used a Mac.

    @76 thx 4 the tip!

    Rapidshare link is a fake!
    It gives a 6GB file. The retail version is 8 or 9 GB

    October 25th, 2007 | 00:40

    @Tdot

    The Torrent file is 6.56 GB

    Oh.. then why can’t you burn it onto a regular DVD? I thought you needed a dual layer DVD?

  94. Alex
    October 25th, 2007 | 00:55

    Hey, Does anyone know how to burn this with a dual layer dvd on windows? My mac doesn’t have a dual layer burner…only my PC

    use disk utility to convert the dmg to an iso for burning on a PC

    I’ve tried to unrar but I keep getting an error msg saying that .r40 and .r46 are corrupt. Is anyone else having problems unraring or am I the only one? And yes, I have tried redownloading these two files several times.

  97. Liski
    October 25th, 2007 | 04:47

    I’ve downloaded it on my XP so I can convert from .dmg to .iso with MagicISO so I can then burn to a DL DVD so I can install it on my friends Mac but MagicISO keeps saying “Can’t find the file or file isn’t CD image file!”

  98. wheee
    October 25th, 2007 | 06:16

    according to a guy down in the 50’s he said for XP your best bet for burning is macdrive. I’d say look into it and see if you get any benefits.

    man… this is such a nightmare… i been working on it on and off the whole day…

    what i have done so far is covert to iso (renaming cdr extension) and in the process of transferring to pc. a word of warning, mac has a 4 gig size limit, which i found out the hard way… after wasting a ton of time.

    so i am using stuffit to segment, which is taking “another” forever…

  100. rptks!
    October 25th, 2007 | 09:27

    @100

    *Mac* has no 4Gig size limit. FAT32 has. And as of know, this is the easiest way to share between Mac & PC. But for bigger files, try chopping it down or use samba to get the file across.

    @ All Mac haters,

    I was not too fond of macs too, with their own fiddling, the claims they *could not be compared* to PC’s, and that sort of crap. Now they have Intel’s, much of that eerie magic has gone. Being able to run Windows natively in bootcamp, and those virtualisation programs (which I use none) made the Mac mature. But you’ll find yourself keep booting OSX, because that’s simply why the Mac is worth the money. It works bloody great. And that was Tiger.. let’s go Leopard!

    Don’t wanna flame, but come on PC buddies.. you have Vista now. That is the crappiest thing there ever was. I’m a true XP-guru, and the few hours I have been working on Vista have been an absolute nightmare.

    Could somebody tell me if this is just another blank DMG or whether it’s the real deal. As in the final GM release candidate??? Thanks.

  102. nonabelian
    October 25th, 2007 | 10:03

    This is Build 9A581 and is the GM. Works great too.

    October 25th, 2007 | 10:11

    BTW all the people that are having trouble burning the image, it’s actually pretty funny. Mac users are use to being able to work with their windows files, but it just simply isn’t the case of windows being able to work with Mac HFS. That’s why you can’t burn the images, or they will show up as “unexpected EOF” etc. You can see this by loading the iso you make into something like MagicISO. Windows only sees the Bootcamp part of the image, so your 6+GB image only shows up as ~470mB in Windows.

    So yes, you are creating ISO image files, but they are still mac formatted. If you have an iPod, just use it as an external drive, use disk utilities to load the .dmg on there and install from it. Figure out the burning crap later.

    Also check “skip checksum” in disk utils to save yourself 10+ minutes.

  104. SH&E
    October 25th, 2007 | 10:19

    So no tricks?? The real thing? Awesome. Looking forward to installing this on my Brand New 2.16 MacBook :D Thanks a lot.

    October 25th, 2007 | 13:00

    Does the Rapidshare version work or not?

  106. Mikael
    October 25th, 2007 | 14:37

    hey:

    It doesn’t seem to work no. I downloaded all the files but got “wrong checksum” and a 2.2Gb file when it was done.

  107. hey
    October 25th, 2007 | 14:48

    what about the bittorrent file?

  108. Mikael
    October 25th, 2007 | 14:51

    Hey:

    Wait! It might work. I unpacked it with UnrarX and got “all OK” and now I have a 6,66Gb file. This might be it!

  109. hey
    October 25th, 2007 | 15:26

    Does it work?

  110. rptsk!
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:19

    Dearest,

    I’m currently burning the image using Disk Utility onto a DL DVD. Is it normal that it states the image as “disk3″?
    I bought only one DL DVD, and really don’t fancy going to the shop once more. :p

    If not, what is the correct way to turn this osx-leopard105.dmg into a bootable DVD using a MacBook with superdrive? I mean, from what I heard it SHOULD be the easiest route, nevertheless I did not find the reassuring words.

  111. hey
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:20

    Still no confirmation? Means it doesnt work. Does it? Dont wanna sit all day long in front of rapidshare for nothin

  112. rptsk!
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:36

    @ hey, 112

    Well I assume it works, check the earlier reactions. Also I have mounted the .dmg on my desktop and this looks fine. OSX Leopard install screen popping up.

  113. vlad
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:38

    IT WORKS.

    the only problems i’ve encounter so far are:

    * the crack for CS3 quits.
    * no sign of iMovie, iDvd, GarageBand.
    * i can’t find the compositing option in iChat.

  114. domeldogg
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:47

    I just burn the .dmg file on DL DVD and just boot from it on my Mac?

  115. rptsk!
    October 25th, 2007 | 16:58

    lol @ vlad

    I actually manually removed those three from my Tiger install because I would never use them and they eat up disk space.

  116. vlad
    October 25th, 2007 | 17:02

    i also usually remove garageband :-p

    ok so my only problem is that i can’t find the compositing option in Ichat (you know, when you can add a video as a background and pretend you are somewhere elese – the beta had it).

    anyone knows where it is ?

  117. smaugthewyrm
    October 25th, 2007 | 17:19

    guys, if you can use an external harddrive to install this. just use disk utility to restore the .dmg file to a partition.

    you must rename the partition to match the name of the mounted .dmg.

    waaaay faster intall, and you dont have to worry about burning bad dvds. they are kinda expensive.

  118. zeyad
    October 25th, 2007 | 17:27

    I just finished downloading the rapidshare files. When i unrared them, i got an error message and a 2.66GB .dmg file

    :(

  119. rptsk!
    October 25th, 2007 | 18:22

    Back again. It seemed this way to burn it was fine, except that it failed the verification in the end. At the second reboot I did enter the Leopard setup, but again failed disk consistency check inside the installation.

    Now is the question: is it the dmg or did something go wrong in the writing process.

  120. rptsk!
    October 25th, 2007 | 18:25

    will try the external harddisk method when I come home.

    @81

    Thx Revert for the link.

    while I’m a Mac user for a long time, I’m not a fanboy, and I know that apple’s crap does not smell any better the microsoft.

    and the only reason there are no viruses is because of the market share. trust me, if more ppl would use Mac, there would be loads of viruses and the OS would not save you.

    Besides, unfortunately thanks to the continuous campaign by Apple (just turn it on + and use it) in general, Mac users are much more dumb than their Windows counterparts.

    I could send a file to anyone and they would click on it cause the OS protects them.

  122. Michael
    October 25th, 2007 | 20:22

    Ok, so when I try to run the dmg file it’s asking me for a password??? Has anyone else run into this problem. The torrent that I d/l (i think the same one linked on this page) has an .rtf listing what the passphrase is but it doesnt work for….. Anyone help?

  123. zeyad
    October 25th, 2007 | 23:54

    Ok, for some reason, the result i get when i use The Unarchiver when i unrar the rapidshare files is a 2.66GB file.

    When i use MacHacha, i get what i think is the right size: 6.56GB. The problem is that the file does not have an extension. I tried adding “.dmg” to the name of the file, but it gives me an error saying “The following disk image failed to mount” when i Open it. Help please.

    Thanks.

  124. smaugthewyrm
    October 26th, 2007 | 02:58

    just finished installing this from the above RS links.

    no problems at all.

    i used “rar expander” ver 0.8.5 to expand it.

    also try:
    unrarx
    simplyrar
    the unarchiver

    also, i used the external partition method. wow, 15 min install time!

    just use disk utility to “restore” the disk image to an external hard drive partition.

    also remember:
    the hard drive MUST BE FORMATED AS guid TO BE BOOTABLE ON AN INTEL MAC.

  125. hilken
    October 26th, 2007 | 03:59

    The dmg file seems fine, but when I check the creation date of the files within the package, it says Sept. 23 2007. Can someone confirm this is the final version (9A581)???

  126. matt
    October 26th, 2007 | 06:05

    yes, this is version 9A581, kernel version: Darwin 9.0.0, everything works perfect, besides Software Update… ;)

    October 26th, 2007 | 07:42

    to clarify the install technique of using an external hard drive check this out.

    October 28th, 2007 | 00:42

    Well i found a craq that i thought it worked. But unfortunately it didn’t worked on mines. Anyways, i found the craq at demonn***.com After using Leopard for 2 days decided to go back to Tiger. Most of the Leoprd functions were operational but i had the feeling that it operates much slower than Tiger…Iam using a 2,4Ghz 2gb ram Macbook Pro.

    The Rapidshare is not working for me. It says the #53 and #69 are corrupt. I tried downloading them again but with no luck. I tried unpacking with all the unarchivers mentioned in these comments + Winrar on windows with the same errors everywhere :(
