I just got my new MacBook Pro which was shipped with Snow Leopard installed. Very soon after working around in the Snow Leopard system, I met with compatibility issues concerning expensive software like Maya 2009 and Adobe CS4. So I have 2 questions as I see it.
I have a stand alone copy of Leopard bought at an Apple Store (not the grey Mac OS X DVDs usually shipped with computers). For this reason I have partitioned my internal hard drive to hold both Snow Leopard in one partition, and Leopard on the other partition. But the problem is that the computer doesn't allow me to run the Leopard install DVD. It doesn't boot from it. Can somebody give me directions of how to get around this issue?
I need this new computer to finish an important project. So I am eager even to downgrade the new MacBook Pro to an old Leopard. But as I have heard, there is a block on degrading from a newer system to an older one. Is there a way around it? Can't run my Leopard install DVD.
I am supposed to be portable with my working studio equipment now, but until so far the new MacBook Pro has been nothing but a chain around my leg. Can anybody help me to solve this issue?
