Clementine Mac Os 10 7



Version 0.7 released - Sunday, March 27, 2011. In this release Clementine gains a brand new edit tag dialog with autocompletion and the ability to automatically identify music and fetch missing tags from MusicBrainz. CUE sheets are now supported - they are detected automatically when scanning your library and each track will show up separately.

Having waited with baited breath over the release of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, I was disappointed to find out that my particular brand of MacBook Black (Intel Core Duo 2.0GHz from 2006 – EveryMac.com spec here) was officially not supported.

The discussion here is actually about supporting 32-bit vs. 64-bit. This solution works, as long as binaries included with the OS include 32-bit. As soon as these are removed (from Software Update and the like), then the solution will falter.

Now, not being one to give up on these things lightly, a little investigation reveals a simple method of getting the installer to run and upgrade this hardware. It seems that the only thing preventing a Lion installation on a 32-bit platform is a hidden (from the system, or available through Terminal) file that can be removed:

/System/Library/CoreServices/PlatformSupport.plist

There is a small gotcha to this, is that you need to install Lion to a supported platform first (such as a Core 2 Duo), then migrate that installation to the unsupported platform. During or immediately after the migration, the file above should be removed, so the migration will live happily on the unsupported hardware.

One suggestion I would make (as with all upgrades) is one of two routes prior to any upgrades:

  1. Install the new OS to a separate partition, so there is always a roll-back or escape lane should (god forbid) anything go awry).
  2. Ensure you have a full backup of your OS before installing / upgrading, using Time Machine to an external drive.
With all this, one thing is for certain – Apple won’t be releasing Lion support for legacy hardware, so if you have older hardware that wants to take advantage of the latest and greatest OS from Apple, solutions like this are looking to be the only way forward.
