No support G4: Apple is now becoming like Microsoft that we need to start upgrading our gear so that latest OS will run?

I, too, agree with dosers and Mark B. Plus, I'd add that you're somewhat looking at the glass as half empty. You've got a Mac G4...that's still working...on Leopard, perhaps. That's got to be at least a 5 year old computer, if not older, that is still working to your satisfaction. There's something to be said for that! If and when you're ready to get a new Mac w/ Intel processors, it will be worth it. But rest assured that your current Mac has exceeded the average expectancy and expectations of personal computers.

Hi, I too have old MAC laptops. I bit the bullet and searched on Goggle for " used macs" It is not the best way but it worked for me. I has aquired 4 used macs and am surviving the on slot of the new tech, OS systems and etc. It is a bit of crap shoot but I have extended my use of "clasic" SW. but the time is near where I will have to go to the newer software. The new SW is making our old SW useless. Regards W. Kirhgofer

I don't see how you guys are running it on Yosemite. The tech specs clearly say OS 10.7-10.8. Please teach me your wizardry!!!

Has this issue been rectified? I also have an iP5 running iOS7 (new OS) and am considering buying the G-17.

The phone came with OS 6.x and with time and use it became slow, lag. Then came and upgrade to OS 7.1 and everything was fixed. Now is fast, steady, works perfectly. Regards.-

I bought my G7-2017us and it has been a very solid performer for me. It's the best I've EVER had. I have uploaded and downloaded and upgraded everything imaginable and never got the message you got. I know my Windows if definitely genuine.

Apple will not properly operate with any other system except Apple. I returned the unit due to incompatability with my OS.

Nope. Unfortunately it only comes with Snow Leopard and doesn't support anything later than it. I'm sure hackers will find a way of making it run, though.

Please do. Micorsoft refuses to support XP. I have a laptop with Windows 8. It is worthless. I leave it home when I travel. In fact if I can't get someone to change it to Windows 7, I'm getting an Apple.

I just had the same problem, but no one seems to have offered you helpful advice. I'll put myself on your "receive e-mail when new posts are made," because I'm NOT a techie and the idea of someone walking me through what needs to be done sounds like the answer to a prayer. (Step by step, please, someone!) But I do think I know what my problem is -- I have the new Leopard operating system, and apparently I need to install some update before it will be compatible. I looked at the directions on how to do THAT, and they are beyond me. Maybe my husband, who is better than this sort of thing than I, can help me.

No, the connection isn't right. Note they don't list any Apple systems in their list of compatible systems.

Quick fix -use an iphone using IOS 7- i used an old 4s running 7.1 and once connected all of my other devices including my new Iphone 6 plus using 8.1.1 auto connected. Do not turn off the G-17 as you will most likely have to go through setup again using the Klipsh airplay app.- good luck-Karen

True. I received an alert from Bad Elf recommending I NOT update my Operating System. They are working on a fix but as of April 24, 2015, they don't have it yet.

I am downloading an upgrade right now so I cannot check, but I think you would go to settings and then "general" it may be in there. Or, go to Apple store and they will surely knowwhere to locate it. Sorry if the first suggestion doesn't work. M. C. I just read the answer b-4 mine which says settings, phone and about. Tony may be closer to the answer than mine. M.C.

I'm not complaining, I already have Leopard installed on my iBook and I really like it. I want to receive the iMac with Leopard installed so I can start working from the get-go. I just assume because Amazon is out of stock now that they are waiting for Apple to ship them iMacs with Leopard installed already.

Not compatible with MAC yet. Spoke with Technical support this morning. They mentioned the next model would be MAC ready. They are currently working on the MAC compatible updates.

Why not . . . it may be slow, but Apple does not change its systems willy nilly . . .
