Solving a Snow Leopard 64 Bit Problem - Will this work?

knmlee · Nov 19, 2009, 01:50 PM

Here's the problem. After upgrading to Snow Leopard a program I need for my job no longer works. The program is Webex. They claim that it should work by opening Safari in 32 bit mode or with Firefox, but neither option works for me.

My plan is to reinstall Leopard (10.5) on an extra partition and reboot into it whenever I need to start a Webex session. I don't think this will cause any problem with my Snow Leopard partition, but thought I would check first.

Thanks in advance

That should work. I had 10.5 on an external drive for about a month while I tested snow leopard and there were no ill affects.
