You must run the Apple updates first on the old machine, so that your Snow Leopard Server guest will get the drivers that it needs to run on your new MacBook Pro.ĬREATE THE SNOW LEOPARD SERVER GUEST ON YOUR OLD MACBOOK PRO?

If you have problems, you may have to create the Snow Leopard Server guest virtual machine in VMware on an older Mac, install the latest Apple updates (to version 10.6.8) there, and then copy it to your new machine.

Basically, the Mac OS X 10.6.3 installer DVD does not contain drivers for the newest Mac hardware. Some newer Macs have problems installing Snow Leopard Server from the Installer DVD in a VMware virtual machine. YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CREATE A SNOW LEOPARD SERVER GUEST ON THE NEWEST MACS: In fact, if you ignore the Server components, there is no real difference. It comes with Installation and Admin Tools DVDs.ĪLL YOUR PROGRAMS RUN ON SNOW LEOPARD SERVER:Īny program that runs under Snow Leopard "client" will run under Snow Leopard Server. I called and verified that it is still available as of last night, 26 November 2014. Not all salespeople will recognize what you want and will be able to find it, but don't lose heart - try again. Order it by calling the Apple Store at (800) 692-7753, and ask for part number MC588Z/A. You can still purchase Mac OS X Server V10.6.3 REV 1 (Snow Leopard Server, unlimited client license). There are ways to hack around the restriction, but why bother when Snow Leopard Server is so reasonably priced? (See below.)īUY SNOW LEOPARD SERVER FROM APPLE FOR $20 TODAY: Moreover, VMware enforces that restriction and allows only Snow Leopard Server guests. The license for the "client" (non-server) version of Snow Leopard does not permit it. Snow Leopard Server runs as a virtual machine guest, but the ordinary "client" version of Snow Leopard cannot. SNOW LEOPARD SERVER ON YOUR VMWARE GUEST, NOT SNOW LEOPARD "CLIENT": Here are a few thoughts that may help you as you consider what to do: I run those programs in a VMware Fusion guest running Snow Leopard Server. Those applications include Eudora (email), Microsoft Office 2004 (which can open old Word and Excel files correctly), Canvas X (graphics), Finale 4 (music notation), and more. I need to open older files, search data, etc. I have a number of programs that will not run on anything past Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. If not, what about using Snow Leopard "Server" in some way that allows me to do what I want, without having to reinstall any old software on the new macbook pro? I'm almost sure you can virtualize w/ vmware an old windows xp pc to a new macbook pro running Mavericks, but, like I said, since April I've really thought you could w/ snow leopard too. But now the link takes me to fusion 7 with no such diagram or info. The idea being that the 2009 snow leopard machine, with all its files and programs (so no need to reinstall programs), is virtualized onto a brand new mavericks macbook pro, and I still have a vmware fusion 6 bookmark to a page that in april showed a diagram connecting two computers with an ethernet cable and it saying this would now work with Snow Leopard to Mavericks. Back in April I thought I talked to vmware by phone about Fusion 6 to virtualize my late 2009 macbook pro running snow leopard to a brand new macbook pro running mavericks by connecting them with an ethernet cable after installing vmware.
