A clean install after having backed up what you need is a really nice thing.

Update is, Upgrade works on a clean Tiger machine. e.g. 5 week old Mac Book Pro. Doesn't work on a 2 year old Tiger machine. I tried hard messing with moving prefs and Application Services etc from the upgraded user. But nothing worked. Must be an invisible file or something. I even emptied the desktop folder, documents folder, everything. Oh well, nice clean install! I'm keeping the 160GB Drive with Tiger on it all set up with it's own backup. And the new 500GB Drive in the G5 for Leopard clean install with it's own 500GB Time Machine drive. And slowly I'll move the G5 over to Leopard by installing one app at a time while I'm doing other stuff. Most of my work is done on the MacBook Pro on a nice big monitor anyway. But anything I need to do on the G5 can be done by firing up the Tiger Hard Drive. I want the G5 to store stuff like video edits and other work I don't need on the move. Hence the 500GB drive. I'd been planning my move to Leopard for some time. I just tried the lazy way of upgrading in the hope that the G5 wouldn't need Clean Installing. I decided not to sell the G5, even tho it was over 2 years old. So I've upgraded the RAM to 5.5GB and put in a RADEON X800 XT 256MB Card to keep it ticking over for a year or so more. It's been a fantastic machine. Still is. Hope you get your machine working. I hope everyone backs up properly before upgrading. You only ever do it wrong once. If you don't have a backup and something goes wrong, your blood runs cold. I learnt my lesson many years ago.

 I have exactly the same problem
I installed on my C2D Mini & no problem. I installed on my G5 iMac -- and Finder hangs on all login accounts. Relaunch doesn't work. I used the default (easy) install on both machines. (btw: yes, I did buy a family pack). |

| Fix
The problem (Likely) is /Library/Application Support/DivXNetworks rename it and reboot. Worked for me. |
