DISQUS

Ferruge · 2 years ago

So were any of you actually able to get this to install without encountering "you already have a newer version installed" messages? I can't seem to ever install a downloaded version of X11User.

How do I convince my machine that I don't have any X11 installed on it?

Ummerr · 3 years ago

Hey, great idea!

I don't know why apple doesn't provide it, a bit frustating...but thanks for all your assistance.

Kev · 3 years ago

Thank you. I keep hitting this problem as well :)

michael lee · 3 years ago

thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm setting up a headless linux home server, and was banging my head against a wall trying to figure out how to use my macbook to run nx. I appreciate this.

It can't find the file for me...(Firefox 2.0.0.1, 2nd January 2007).

Will · 2 years ago

Sorry, it seems it was just connection gremlins. So: thanks a lot! My tiger disc is a mere 8-hour flight away at the moment.

Mike P · 2 years ago

Thanks! You really save my butt. I didn't have my install DVD with me while out of town.

Mickey R · 2 years ago

Thank you for doing this, it is much appreciated!

Brian · 2 years ago

Thank you so much! I was stranded for a while just now, when I realized I didn't have X11 installed. I'm on vacation from home, so I didn't bring my installer discs. You're a real life-saver!

Patrick Breen · 2 years ago

Found this on Google looking for exactly what was posted here. Thanks so much!

Jeff · 2 years ago

you are THE MAN for doing this! I am away from home and needed to run a new program via X11. you saved me!!!

thom · 2 years ago

Great, I have the tigers cd but cannot find any X11 related package (except X11SDK which I don't really care about).
thank you very much, I still don't understand why it's so hard to find this package.
Is anybody else french ? did just apple forget to include X11 on the french cd ?

Eddie · 2 years ago

Chris,
I am new to Apple computers and due to people such as yourself it has been an incredibly easy switch from PC to Apple. Thank you for posting this, you are the man!

pete · 2 years ago

Thanks! Shame it took me an hour or 2 to find this, but big thanks

Ian · 2 years ago

Hey there, I was just looking through the vast intarwebs for a way to instal x11 without the CD, and hope was fading till... I hit upon this site! Thanks you so much!

Thanks ... spend n hour last night trying find the DVD and then trying to find a download site. Appreciate your efforts!

Cody M. · 2 years ago

Thank You so much! I have my DVD but my Powerbook DVD ROM is not working ( I replaced the display and the DVD ROM is not perfectly back in place to eject the current disk out of the case). somehow my X11 got screwed up and I didn't want to have to open up the hardware at the moment. Why doesn't Apple just do what you have done. Again, thanks so much

Cody

Gene · 2 years ago

Thank you thank you!

tim · 2 years ago

thanks heaps!!! I am traveling at the moment, and needed to install X11 on my macbook in order to give a demonstration. Like I would take the install CDs with me......Goddammit - X11 is an opensource project. It should be easy to download online. Apple should have a direct link to it on their web site. It would make everyone happier - with no extra cost to them - except a little bandwisth now and then....Thank you for the files!!!!!

Judy · 2 years ago

Phil · 2 years ago

Thanks a bunch, i am stuck on the other side of the country and thought i was going to have to wait for the mail service to deliver my disk from home. Life saver!

Jerry · 2 years ago

One question tho..did you guys successfully install the x11 from the downloaded files? It tells me to "insert the X11 Tiger CD".. Is there a CD for X11 or its saying insert the Tiger CD (that i left it at home and wont be able to get it until next month..)??

Chris:

My install disk is back in the U.S. I've tried to connect to http://idt.lcc.gatech.edu/~cmartin9/files/X11Ti.... with no success. Any problems (I hope not).

Chris Martin · 2 years ago

Sorry, the server where I was hosting the files at school GaTech!(figures) went down. However, someone else on the intarweb literally copied this entire post and will not respond to any of my attempts at asking them to credit me or at least alter their (completely ripped off) post.

I won't link to them here, but I am downloading their un-kindly mirrored file (they also provided a direct link to my file), and I will re-up it very shortly.

Thanks for commenting to let me know something was wrong.

-Chris

Edit: The new file is up (see above).

Stephen Dorn · 2 years ago

Chris:

Dropped you an E-mail. And since I started in a public forum, I'll end there. The downlaod was a success. You're most accomodating and do wish you the best in your future endeavors.

Thanks again,

Great stuff, thanks!

Brandon · 2 years ago

Well I ran down the list and except for the guy out of the country, I think I'm the farthest from my Tiger disks of all. I go to college at the University of Wisconsin - Madison and am on a summer physics internship in Texas. I drove down, 1150 miles. Well you see my dad replaced my G4 Powerbook for me and didn't have X11 installed, and down here everyone uses MatLab and it's really convenient to have MatLab portable... THANKS SO MUCH. You're right about X... it's supposed to be free, but you're the only guy who has it for Tiger.

Shaz · 2 years ago

muj · 2 years ago

I know why Apple don't distribute X11 on their website: They just told me I had to purchase a new CD for 90 GBP -- greedy capitalists. And all this after forking out for their expensive products. Anyways, thanks for this free download of X11. Helped a lot!

BakesMBP · 2 years ago

Thanks a million mate! The OSX install disk was telling me 3gb to install all this software. I don't really want to install all that - yours gives me the package at around 110mb! Much better. Thanks again.

I bought a great comp on ebay, but, of course, I didn't get the install disk with it, and they didn't install X11 for me.

So I was searching around but I couldn't find it, and then I tried this and, tada, it worked! I can use GIMP now, thank you!

Toadstone · 2 years ago

Johannes · 2 years ago

Hey, thanks a lot! That was really helpful!

It seems I'm not the only one who doesn't carry his Tiger DVD around at all times and who suddenly, while being hundreds of miles from home, realizes that he needs to get X11 installed to get some things done properly.

It's a shame that Apple doesn't provide this download by themselves.

ninjafilm · 2 years ago

I got the Tiger DVD and needed X11User.pkg but could only find the X11SDK.pkg on the damn DVD. I am sure it is on the freakin DVD somewhere but hey, aren´t Apple trying to profile their products as userfriendly?

Anyway, it was much quicker to google this post and download so I could start to use Inkshape which I desparately needed to vectoricize a .gif picture. I was really pressed for time and if possible I would like to send a small donation for your awesome initative of hosting X11.

Many thanks!!!

Tom Frost · 2 years ago

You don't seem to be lacking in thanks, but let me add one more! I couldn't find my Tiger CD to save my life and I *REALLY* needed to run the NoMachine NX client to get into my home Linux computer. You, sir, are a lifesaver!

Ted · 2 years ago

One more - I had X11 installed but needed the headers in a jiffy to install darwinports. Thanks!

Sheryl · 2 years ago

Thanks man!

Kdansky · 2 years ago

I was searching for this package for ages, since I am far away from home (and from the dvd). You deserve a prize!

Bob Wright · 2 years ago

Will this work with Panther?

I loaded the one on the CD but the software (Inkscape) does not find it and it it keeps asking me to load the X11 for Panther.

Mangetout · 2 years ago

Thank you. I was given a secondhand mac - fully working, but with no install media - this was just the ticket.

Chris Martin · 2 years ago

Hi Bob,

You asked if this version would work with Panther. I don't think it will, but the version that apple does provide on their website should work with everything up to Tiger (including Panther).

That version can be found here:

Anne Balkema · 2 years ago

Thanks a lot!.. Crazy and very annoying apple doesn't provide it on their website :s.

Fleur · 2 years ago

Thank you!

I have my disk, but had my mac repaired last week and the apple repairer stuffed up my cd drive! rah
You have saved me a lot of hassle as it is the weekend and I needed X11 today :-)

Fleur

Zach · 2 years ago

Ugh, I can't believe Apple doesn't provide this download. I moved out of my parent's house and left the Tiger DVD there. I need X11 to develope some things for work, from my home. I was about to torrent the restore CD until I saw this. Yay to you for posting it.

Jordan Brough · 2 years ago

Karim · 2 years ago

Took my iBook G4 with Panther loaded on it for repair under warranty. It came back with Tiger (they had to replace the hard drive, among other things) on it, but no disc. This site wasn't as easy to find as I thought it would be. Thanks!!!

enrico · 2 years ago

You made my day.

Brian · 2 years ago

This makes me really happy.

Jen · 2 years ago

You made a day of problems just get a bit easier! I didn't have my OS X install DVD with me at work (I mean, who carries it around? Okay, I do sometimes for reasons just like this!) However, I'm very glad you posted it. Thanks a bunch!

Leann Ballsworth · 2 years ago

I appreciate this very much. I knew that Mac only offered X11 download online for Panther, but I thought I would do a quick search anyway. Your site came up as the third result and it was so easy. I have a deadline for a project in just a couple hours from now. I'm using "Inkscape", which requires X11 in order to run. This was so helpful. Thanks again.
p.s. you are smart.

Stuart · 2 years ago

Sandie Abel · 1 year ago

Thanks so much! I'm trying to set up a store on Etsy and am not computer savvy, so wish me luck, please! Why is it that all instructions for software seem to start in the middle? I mean, you start from Step 1 (allegedly) only to find you have to do a tremendous amount of downloading and other prequel work in order to even *get* to where you can begin with Step 1? I wish software designers could design software with old, ignorant people in mind. Thanks again, Sandie

And You did...Thanks.

sunnix · 1 year ago

Thank you very much. I really needed this. I updated my tiger from the version of the install disc to version 10.4.11 and I think because of that I could anymore install x11 from the install disc. But your zip-package helped and now I can happily use Gimp :-)

I looked for hours using Google and Apple's websites. Finally, I typed in the Google search window--one more time--x11. Your website was at the top. What a blessing! x11 is working great and I am using it with OpenOffice 2.4 since even the people at the Mac store do not know how to add bullets for IWork08. I am glad we have wizards like you out there.

Seriously. This is the only place I've found X11 for Tiger, as Apple seems to have dropped the ball on providing it for a long time. And really, who's going to have their Tiger discs when they -need- them?

Many many thanks. I cannot emphasize how much this has helped.

This is a really great favour and I agree completely. Who wants X11 for 10.3! Who carries their install disks around. Why isnt someone at apple doing this.

Jaqui · 1 year ago

This is absolutely necessary! There are so many situations where an online download can be needed, and without your download I would not be able to install OpenOffice. From what I can tell from my google search, you are still the only one offering this.
Thank you so much for your help.

Sam · 1 year ago

Thanks a lot, this is very helpful!

April · 1 year ago

Thank you so much for this! I've searched high and low for my Install disk, and I needed to install X11 for a program for a project that was due the next day. You're a freaking life saver. I owe my A+ to you!

Brian · 1 year ago

Thank you. That pretty much says it all. My 10.4 install disks are at the field station on another continent - won't be back there for another 6 months. You are kind to offer your help.

David · 1 year ago

Dude, you have saved me. Now I can get the extra credit for this project. You are a god among men sir.

c4bl3fl4m3 · 1 year ago

When I reinstalled OS X over top of my old install, it seems to have broken my X11. And I bought this Mac 2nd hand off of a friend, so I never got the installer disks. Thanks so much!

Mike · 1 year ago

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who doesn't carry my install disc around. Thanks.

Murat · 1 year ago

Thanks man !!!

Mark · 1 year ago

Thank you sir! I didn't want to have to wait till I got home and dug my Tiger DVD out of the closet.

Jeremy · 1 year ago

Thanks a lot Chris for for providing this quick way to get x11. I would hate to dig up my old install discs (that's if I could even find them).

I really appreciate it.

V&V Dahana · 1 year ago

Hi there, Chris. I don't think I'm confident enough to speak in english, but I think I'm gaining an incredible spark of confident when it comes to express my gratitude for your effort in sharing the 'X Files', I mean, the '11' one :) ... Yes, 'the truth is out there',... out of Apple's official 'site'!
Thanks a lot, Chris...

david · 1 year ago

thanks!!! :)

Ray · 1 year ago

Thank you! You saved me much time, money, gasoline (I almost drove home to find my install disc), and my sanity. You have served the public well!

Joshua · 1 year ago

THANKS ALOT!!!!

All I want is to install the Ardour trial, to see what the fuss is about. :) It is supposed to be the best program available. :O
But it HAS to be installed only after x11. Since I bought my quicksilver second hand, I don't own the actual OS-X cd, it came pre-installed. So you really gave me a way out from a dead-end.

Thank you very much and good karma to you! :)

abe · 1 year ago

many many thanks!

sjvuorela · 1 year ago

Thank you, Sir! My Tiger DVD is 650 km from here and Apple, for some weird reason, doesn't provide X11 for Tiger as a download. Saved my butt!

Jonathan Sherman, LMFT · 1 year ago

Thank you mucho!!!! The Apple tech support guy, who was great, didn't know what to do to help me get X11 running on my Mac OSX v10.4.11 but he was great at finding out. He found your website and pointed me here. This took care of it and now I'm using Inkscape for the first time today to see if it will be able to replace my Illustrator needs. So far I'm liking what it can do. This will allow me to finally upgrade to the latest OSX without having to buy an Illustrator upgrade I simply can't afford. You helped tremendously. Thank you again very much!!! Jonathan Sherman

Thanks! I own a refurbished Mac which does not come with the installer CD's (I don't know why). I'd be between a rock and a hard place right now if I didn't stumble upon this site.

MC · 1 year ago

Thank you so much for hosting! I needed to install x11 quick and didn't have time to dig through all my stuff to find the disk.

Braden · 1 year ago

Thanks so much! I got Open Office 2.4 but it wouldn't install because it needed X11, and I don't have the restore DVDs. So, thanks for putting that up.

Lironah · 1 year ago

Every OS X 4.11 user who has been trying to install GIMP will thank you forever! For some reason the version many people have on their disk won't run graphics...but this one makes it all work!

david · 12 months ago

THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH! I've been looking everywhere for this, when it was only a few keywords away on google! I wasted hours looking for my old install CD's and had completely given up hope! I downloaded GIMP a couple of months ago, only to discover that I couldn't utilize it until I located the X11 component -- thank you so much (again) for making it available. You are a serious lifesaver!!! -david

michael · 12 months ago

Legend! I needed X11 to run gimp and thanks to you found it very quickly: Thanks!

John · 12 months ago

This couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've been working on gimp on a pc desktop but I need to travel for a couple of months. This is a very last minute thing for me, and I'm leaving tomorrow. This will do a great deal to save my job. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

David · 12 months ago

Sir,

You are fantastic. Thank you for doing what I would have done if I had a working setup. I'm trying to NX into my box at home. I am on vacation and don't have the *second* osx disc with me. I forgot it by accident. This has been a GREAT help. I was so frustrated when I realized that Apple was clutching yet another piece of their domain as though some Windows dev might get their greasy hands on it. I still cannot fathom the pretentiousness of Apple, Inc. Anybody listening, just try dual booting windows and linux on apple firmware. When you've finished, tell me how you did it. I've been on linux for 4 years now and I cannot figure it out.

Malena · 11 months ago

Muchisimas gracias!!!
I cannot begin to tell you how helpful you have been by providing these files online. I thank you, sir. Keep up the good work. :)

If I were wealthy I'd generously send you over a whole bunch of dinero. But after seeing what happened to the mortgage companies after using that strategy, perhaps that would not be the wisest thing to do. If it's the thought that counts then you are the best.

Thanks for helping out!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Was wanting to try GIMP on my machine, and it indicated I needed X11. Amazing that from 2006 until now Apple still doesn't have this available for download from their site.

I've used Macs since System 7 and Apple has become so Microsoft-like lately it makes me wanna puke.

Thanks for hosting the package. It's silly that Apple doesn't. They have the 10.3 X11, and a note to 10.4 users to just use their install disc.

But what happens when you leave your install disc in New Mexico, 900 miles away? You come here, that's what.

Cheers,

Jarrett

Thanks, much apprieciated, you do sometimes wonder what Appl are thinking, they do make some good stuff yet some of the decisions they make with regard to logic seem somewhat lacking

Thanks a million. I am downloading it and will try it. Apple shud see the number of comments u've got (meaning people obviously need it and dont have the DVD in their pocket) and make it available on their web. I spent almost an hour trying to find this on their website.

Thank you for making this available online. I've moved so many times that I have no idea where my CD is--in one of the unpacked boxes, but which one?

One thing which you might consider adding to your instructions is how to install it. I'm more of a *nix person, so I untarred the file and then looked around the directories for something to run make on. It took a few minutes before I started up the finder and realized I was able to click on the .pkg to install it! Kind of stupid of me, but quite possible if you're more familiar with the command-line than with macs.

Hello visitors! You may have arrived here from a link to http://cjmart.in - don't be alarmed. This is the same post, I'm just moving things around a bit and since this post gets quite a bit of traffic I thought I'd start with it first to test things out.

Hope your problems are solved like the nearly 1000 others who have left comments on this post. I'm glad I put these files online!

-Chris

Chris that was a great help. I use to get this Posix13 error message when I tried to install mac updates and couldn't load Gmail or Utube because of the same error. Something to do with a missing installer. I couldn't load x11 from the Mac site for the same error. But you have saved the day. So now I am not blocked! You're a champ! :-)
Of to try and install GIMP, now that I have x11

ILWCCS · 1 month ago

thanks

stephenaustralia · 1 month ago

Hey there - yes I got Gimp to work after installing X11 from here. All good! the other issue I had was actually my web protection software blocking cookies - when it detected a site like Youtube seeking an email address it alerted me to a hack and I was blocking them. All fixed now. Cheers, S
