Q: g5 and pandora

Simple. We like listening to our Herbie Hancock station on Pandora and seeing our screen saver images on our huge cinema display while we're having our candlelight dinner at night. The problem. Old G5 10.4.11 no intel - it's only real purpose is the above & storage - and now Pandora isn't providing support. Any ideas? signed, a Sentimental Romantic

    If Pandora is accessed using a web browser, and does not require Flash Player, it may work using the TenFourFox web browser, which you can download here

    TenFourFox is essentially the latest version of FireFox, optimized and compiled by a dedicated developer to work on PowerPC Macs running Tiger (10.4) or Leopard (10.5). 

     

    TenFourFox keeps my Power Mac G5 useful (connected to my HDTV); it can access most web sites that work with current version of FireFox (which is most web sites).  It does not work if Flash Player is required (because there's no updated version of Flash Player for PowerPC Macs), but that's OK because I tend to avoid web sites that need Flash Player anyways.
