Run Aperture on a 12" PowerBook
Authored by: dsiska on Dec 13, '05 12:53:17AM

Oh well, I'm sorry to hear this; I only have a 12" powerbook and so I tried to get it working on a Powerbook. What is the error message you're getting?

"Your computer does not meet the minimum hardware requirements for Aperture." when running the program.
I changed Info.plist for the RAM req. and replaced the NVIDIA strings with 1's in Aperture.app/Contents/MacOS/Aperture.

Run Aperture on a 12" PowerBook

768MB, and I changed the Info.plist file to set the minimum required to 500.

I also fiddled with the installation package to do the same thing (allow Aperture to install even if I don't have the minimum required RAM & video card), and that worked. But I still can't run the app itself.

Run Aperture on a 12" PowerBook
Authored by: shiyinjia on Dec 26, '05 11:03:50PM

I am having trouble getting my PB to accept the changes I made in the Aperture executable. I keep getting a mach 0 error. Does anyone know what this means and how to correct it? I followed the intructions as per the post to no avail. I did use Textedit to change the file. Could that be the reason? Thanks for your help.
