There could be several reasons. One likely one is that you do not have a modern version of Mac OS X. G3s shipped with Mac OS 8.6 or Mac OS 9. They cannot run Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) at all, and can only run Mac OS X 10.4 with hefty and usually unsupported upgrades. In the Related links section, you will find screenshots of Mac OS 8.6, Mac OS 9, Max OS X 10.0, and Mac OS X 10.1, so you can get an idea of what those systems look like, and if they look like the one you are running. There is also a link on how you can upgrade older Macs, although it is probably not worth the effort.
I have a Mac OS X but I know Mac OS is a computer made by the brand/company, Apple.
You cannot without erasing your hard drive and installing Mac OS 9 from scratch. Even then Mac OS 9 may not run on modern Mac hardware because Mac OS 9 needs the ROM chip to boot. Modern Mac OS X hardware uses EFI to boot the system instead of a ROM chip to boot. Mac OS X v10.0 - Mac OS X v10.4 support Mac OS 9 applications and can run them, you just need to install the Mac OS 9 compatibility program which can be found on the Mac OS X Install CD.
The second name of Mac OS X v10.4.5 is Mac OS X v10.4 Intel.Mac OS X 10.4 was known as Mac OS X Tiger.
The oldest mac OS is System 1
Mac OS Leopard
Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) needs to be purchased as it is not possible to update from Mac OS X 10.2.8
Unless the disc is damaged and so needs reformatting you can run the Mac OS installer over an existing Mac OS.
Mac OS X is an operating system released by Apple Inc. It is designed for Apple branded computers, which is why you will never see a Dell, or an HP computer run Mac OS X. There are only two important versions of Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server, and regular Mac OS X. Mac OS X server was designed for servers, while regular Mac OS X was designed for most computers. The current version of Mac OS X (10.6) is named Snow Leopard.
