Here’s one of the best Mac OS X theme for OSX and non-OSX users who want the look of OSX on Windows.
dobee has created an excellent Mac OSX theme called OSX TigerV for Windows.

Features:
Unfortunately, installing the theme is not a one click thing. However, it’s not that hard if you follow the steps below.
1. Download and install Uxtheme Multi-patcher 5.5 (StyleXP would work but because it’s shareware, I’d opt for Uxtheme)
2. Click on the Patch button.
3. Uxtheme will identify your Windows version and confirm.
4. In a few seconds, you’ll get a Windows File Protection popup like the picture below. It is IMPORTANT that you click on the Cancel button.

5. It will again prompt you “Are you sure you want to keep these unrecognized file versions?” Click YES.
6. Restart your computer.
7. Copy the TigerV folder and TigerV .theme files to XP’s default theme directory which is usually located at C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes. You can directly go to the Themes folder by double clicking the “Shortcut to Themes“.
8. Right click on your Desktop and select Properties. Click on the Theme dropdown and you’ll see “Tiger V” in the list.

9. Select Tiger V and click OK button to change your theme to Mac OSX.

Not sure about his one it looks great but Samurize gives me a fair imitation of an OSX Kernel panic
so is not for me.
‘Tiger 2′ does a similar possibly more accurate job, I am not sure.

For those that want it all with just one click.
‘Fly a kite’ is a free OSX Tiger Total transformation package. Does everything from Apple boot screen right down the the correct Mac shutdown icon. It’s the full Sunday roast but unfortunately all this quartz/glass/whatever animation stuff is too slow for my aging PC. But it works perfectly and does not mess up Windows, even its uninstaller works perfectly. The authors site is mysteriously down so get it at :

There are also a few for ‘Style XP’ and ‘Windows blinds’ including a Leopard theme but I have not checked them out yet. Both appz are commercial and available at the usual places.
Lest we forget Raymond told us we could install OSX on a PC anyway? JAS has retired but UPHUNK is still hard at it with OX 10.10 and hinting about Leopard which is in Beta. Rumor is they don’t want to release Leopard before Apple does in case S.Jobs. has a sense of humor failure.
[...] with Unity, it might be interesting to use the Tiger theme. Follow the instructions as described here with these files. It makes the integration look a little more seamless
. For Linux/Gnome you can [...]

1. Download the MultiPatcher 5.5 (link below)

2. Unzip “uxpatcher” and you should have a file called “UXTheme Multi-Patcher 5.5″
3. Click “UXTheme Multi-Patcher 5.5″ and your screen will (if not) go to a defualt window screen’s.
4. Follow the instructions and restart your compputer…it should return back to normal..
5. Then copy any theme you want to the /Resources/Themes Folder and your done.
6. Right clck on desktop & go to proporties and make sure you on the themes tab, then on the drop down click on there you should find your theme: you can also go into appearence and under “windows & buttons” you can find (if your theme has more types) other themes.
or double-cick on the theme you placed and youll be sent to the popreties and appearence tab then presto you have it!

Hi I Need help Because I Keep Accidently Exiting The Bottom Dock And i Dont Know how to Make It Pop Back Up Again.
Please Help
the taskbar is poor
ok got to the point of trying to add the theme after right clicking and goin to porerties….the theme shows up but after i click on it, it shows an error stating
error loading theme
the theme could not be loaded because one of the needed theme files could not be found. this can happen with themes that are not installed or authored correctly. you should berify that the wallpaper, screensaver, icons, sounds, and other files are in the correct location
anyone know what i did wrong??
I just dont get it, I have Windows Vista and I can download the MultiPatcher, but when I click on the file, it says \”DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS OS\”……I dont know what I am doing wrong.
seppp muga aja bisa
berhasilllllllllllll sekarang tinggal cari rocket docknya huehehehhe
thanks a lot bro im from indonesia
if you have done everythin right …n still getiing the error :
error loading theme
the theme could not be loaded because one of the needed theme files could not be found. this can happen with themes that are not installed or authored correctly. you should berify that the wallpaper, screensaver, icons, sounds, and other files are in the correct location ….try this….it should help….
open the tigerv.theme file in wordpad….the default value for icons uses the hardcoded path of C:\WINDOWS…so u can either replace it with %WINDIR% or change it to your windows installation directory…..
Worked perfectly fine for me with no issues. I thought it was a great theme. Not quite as detailed as flyakiteosx but ok nonetheless
The tigerv theme worked perfectly but i had a problem with the “finder” thing, i installed samurize, install the “Tiger_Finder.sam”, then what to do next?
Someone can help me please?
