Pure and simple Lion does not support any PowerPC applications etc. No Rosetta which has been culled. If your Mac is new, later than mid July 2011, Lion is the only OS it will support. If older go back to Snow Leopard if PowerPC is a must.
I think I read on one post, can't remember what it was answering, but the person had both Snow Leopard and Lion installed so that they wouldn't lose rosetta programs... You can do a search on here or google or look in the OS part of these forums.
I used a Palm IIIC with my Mac doe a long time with few issues. When it died I usedI used a Palm Centro. At first things worked rather well using either the Palm Desktop software or third party software. Somewhere along the way it seemed that every free weeks I was spending hours troubleshooting synch issues. The Palm software had not been updated in ages and the third party software relied on at least some of those components. Eventually I gave up and bought an iPhone. Smartest decision I ever made.
