Can't upgrade my software from OS X 10.6.8 to 10.8. It does not appear in Software update either?

Hi,
My mail has stopped working on my Macbook and I think I need to update my software from OS X 10.6.8 to 10.8. Strangely though it does not appear in my software updates. Can anyone offer any advice?

you need to buy 10.8 from the app store.  also, upgrading to a new version of OS X will most likely not fix the problem.

    I think the setting you're looking for is within the iWork apps; for example, Settings>Pages>Use iCloud>On.  Also be sure to set Settings>iCloud>Documents & Data to On.

  • In Logic Pro, trying to import a drum track from the bin to arrange area, the 'follow loop' box does not appear in the inspector

    imported a drum track from bin to arrange area.  It will not follow tempo of the project even though it was recorded in this project.  The 'follow tempo' box in the inspector does not appear even though it is present on other tracks in the file.
    how do I set up the track so the 'follow tempo' box appears in the inspector?

    Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
    'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.

  • HT1386 my ipad is not syncing my music correctly from my itunes account via my laptop. The music does not appear, although it shows when you look into summary as grayed out .

    I carried out a recent software update and there after that my itunes music would not sync in the normal way. My music only shows on my ipad when connected and in music summary and this is shown as grayed out with a broken circle icon beside any new music which has been inported to my itunes account via my laptop. In the past when i connected my ipad to my laptop to sync it would ask if i wanted to transfer from ipad or not. This does not happen now at it goes straight into sync mode.

    Hi,
    This sounds so frustrating. If any processing of sound, e.g. through Logic, through Wiretap, or you might try Garageband (which I assume you have tucked away somewhere), produces the problem, then its hard to blame the software of the individual program. This leaves OSX and/or Coreaudio, or a hardware problem. Sorry if you've already reached this stage. This would mean a reinstall of OSX (or an upgrade, if you're thinking of it), or addressing the hardware issue. I know I had some very bizarre things (and repetitive) happen to me with faulty memory, or memory that just wasn't seated properly in its slot. You could start out by running the hardware test and go from there.
    Good Luck,

  • After uninstalling a program, it does not appear in Software Center

    Hello,
    We had a program that was not working, so we removed it (via Programs and Features) with the intent to run the deployment again from Software Center. However, the app no longer appears in Software Center, even after running an Application Deployment Evaluation
    Cycle and a Machine Policy Retrieval and Evaluation Cycle.
    It appears that Software Center isn’t re-detecting the need to list the app. We have seen this before with another app. In both cases, we had to go into SCCM, find the install command for the app, and run that command manually.
    Any ideas as to what might cause this?

    App is called Doceri, 32-bit, version

  • HT204088 I have received an email with a receipt to my iCloud email for a purchase from a apple store in Perth Australia...it does not appear in my purchased list but why did I get the email

    I have received a receipt to my email address from an apple store in Perth Australia. No purchase history on my iTunes account but clearly someone else appears to have given my iCloud email...has this happened to anyone before? Should I be worried that someone has access to my account and emails. I sent a query to Apple and received a generic non answer......typical.

    The purchase history on your iTunes account will only show purchases from the iTunes stores (iTunes, app store, ibookstore, Mac app store), not from Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.
    Does anything show on your credit card ? If the email is genuine then it's possible that your and their email addresses are similar and that they gave the wrong id (or the store typed it incorrectly), it doesn't necessarily mean that anybody has access to your account.
    For the contact, you will initially just receive an acknowledgement email, the proper reply may take 24 (possibly 48) hours.

  • I have an Olympus E620 and have bought an IPad 4th Generation. How can I transfer my pictures from the camera to the IPad?. My camera does not take SD cards.

    I have an Olymput E620 and iPad 4th generation, how can I download the pictures off the camera to the iPad?
    The only cable I can find with lightning and usb is the apple camera adaptor but it is £25 from Apple which is a bit expensive if it will not work. Some peoples reviews seem to say this will not work, I can not use the camera reader by Apple as this only takes SD cards and my camera takes XD and compact flash cards. I have realised that you cannot use this cable on a card reader which is a shame and means taking more cables on holiday with you and more likely to get lost. This is so frustrating as one of the reasons of buying the iPad was to use, to transport photos whilst away instead of having lots of cards which do get lost and damaged. I hope someone can help as there seems to be a lot of confusion as to what works in cases like this.

    go to start - computer - right click on ipod and import pics.
    Peace, Clyde

  • Ipod touch does not appear in itunes 11 after upgrade

    I upgraded my mac book pro to Mt. Lion and could still sync to my ipod.  Then I upgraded my iphoto and itunes to the latest version.  Now my ipod does not appear in itunes.  I think I need to upgrade my ipod from 4.2.1 to io5, but cannot do that without being able to sync.  What do I do.  And do I really need io5 to resolve this problem?

    Here's the general troubleshooting: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Did you also try another USB cable or USB port?
    Is your device plugged in directly, without using a USB hub?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.
    If you created a new account then you can log out of the old account and in with the new one as above, but any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can re-download its content and download updates to its apps.

  • HT1444 how can I upgrade my macbook from 10.5.8 version to the latest version

    how can I upgrade my macbook from OS X 10.5.8 version to the latest version?

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

    The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a early 2008 iMac supposedly limited to 4 GB and noticed an improvement.

  • I can't upgrade my iphone4 from iOS5.01 to iOS5.1, tried many times, always showed "unknown error 1602", what should I do?

    I can't upgrade my iphone4 from iOS5.01 to iOS5.1, tried many times, always showed "unknown error 1602", what should I do?

    Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error: 
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service. 
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • Iam currently using Quicken for Mac 2007. Can I upgrade my os from 10.6.8 to 10.9

    Eric:
    You are more trusting of "waiting" for Intuit to live up to their promises than I am!
    From Baltwo's quoted article:
    This happened when Lion released and Apple decided to remove Rosetta which was a software tool to allow old software to run on the new Intel based Macs.  It took a bunch of developers 8 months to get 2007 working again on Lion even though they didn’t add any new features. 
    Intuit had six years notice that Rosetta was a temporary solution to its PPC versions of Quicken, yet waited until Apple finally removed Rosetta from Lion before instituting its programming for an Intel version!?!
    This is very consistent with their history of how they treat their Mac customers relative to their Windows customers...
    Morale of the story...  don't wait!  For $15, start using Quicken now.
