HT201475 Can you download Yosemite at an Apple Retail Store

Are you able to download Yosemite at an Apple retail Store, like you could with Mavericks?
Thanks in advance

Hi ..
Yes. You can take your Mac to an Apple Store and they will download Yosemite for you.
You can make a Genius Bar reservation in advance > Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Before you head off to an Apple Store, make sure your Mac meets Yosemite's requirements Apple - OS X Yosemite - How to Upgrade
As with any upgrade, make sure to backup all your important data prior to upgrading.

Suddenly can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail

Suddenly, I can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail (Version 2.1.1 (752.3)).
For quite a few years I have been using Apple Mail to access my .mac email. As of last Friday, Mail stopped working. Nothing has changed (accept for the installation of the latest OS X security upgrade - SecUpd2006-008Univ.pkg).
I can still access my .mac mail through the .mac web browser and I can still access it through SnapperMail on my Palm Treo 680. But, when I open Apple Mail on my MacBook, it does not do anything, just sits there. When I open the Activity Viewer window, 3 activities are going on:
1. Opening Mailbox
2. Synchronizing with Server (Connecting to...)
3. Synchronizing with Server (Synchronizing with...)
After a few minutes, the error triangle appears next to the Inbox and .Mac logos on the left hand panel.
I have tried Apple Mail from several locations (different ISP / WiFi / LAN) over several days but get the same problem.
Does anyone have ideas for a solution?
Regards
Peter

Let’s first make sure that the update is installed properly, and post back with your observations when done.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the update that appears to not have been installed properly. You may also need to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with your computer:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

Can you Cluster MACs at home?

Can you cluster Mac computers at home so they all use the same account/user information, and share all locally mounted volumes using somthing like Mass Storage Control Protocol?
I have Tiger version 10.4.10
Power Mac Dual G5
iMac G5
Mac Mini G5
and soon to be added 24" core 2 duo iMac
I also have a Black Mac Book Core duo, but it would not be a member of the cluster.
If this is not possible, will it be possible in Leapord?
Thank you in advance.

Mac OS X support the Unix Network File System (NFS). However, it leaves out
the GUI.
NFS Manager is a small tool for easy access to the NFS features of Mac OS X. As an operating system with a Unix core, Mac OS X is able to support the Network File System (NFS) protocol. NFS is the accepted industry standard for sharing files between Unix systems.
http://www.bresink.com/osx/NFSManager.html
This page show you how to use NetInfo Manager:
http://mactechnotes.blogspot.com/2005/09/mac-os-x-as-nfs-server.html#c1168221713 40271068
Once you figure out how NFS Manager configures the NFS shares, you can
use Applications > Utilities > NetInfo Manager to create more shares.
You will either have to coordinate Unix Userid number and Unix Group Id number or use the mapall option on the share.
To find out your Mac OS X userid and group id do:
applications > utilities > terminal
ls -ln
ls -l
# lists the NFS share on your mac
showmount -e localhost
#list NFS shares on a remote host
showmount -e remote-ip-address
Once you see what NFS Manager does, you will be able to use NetInfo Manager to manage a connection. In Mac OS 10.4 you can configure the /etc/exports control file. See man exports for the details. Before that you had to have the data in NetInfo manager. When Mac OS X came out, many common Unix control files were not present. Instead the data had to be in NetInfo manager. Over time Apple has added more and more standard Unix control files.
===============================================================
It's best to have common uid's and gid's.
This is tricky stuff.
You need to change these things:
1) Your account information
2) All of your files & folders
One way to change what uid and gid are defined for your account is theNetInfo Manager application. This doesn't change the UID & GID on your files and folders.
Mac OS X ... harddrive -> Applications -> Utilities -> NetInfo Manager
In the middle column is the function. Pick users then select your user. Click on the lock at the bottom of the panel. Go into the property list and change UID and GID."
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464 {} \;
sudo find -x / -group 20 -exec chgrp 211 {} \;
There are two generally used schemes for assigning a group to a user:
1) Assign all users to a common group like staff.
2) Assign each user to their own group. A user like test would be in group test.
Mac OS uses method 1 in 10.2 and method 2 in 10.4.
You should not have multiple users assigned to the same uid. My worry is that if you are only change in the 50x range, you could run into a conflict.
Your best bet is to change to a high number like 5464 on all of your accounts.
On Mac OS, there are a few files that have the old uid as part of their names. The .Trashes file will be on your removal media and maybe everywhere.
/.Trashes/501
/Library/Caches/com.apple.IntlDataCache.501
/Library/Caches/com.apple.IntlDataCache.sbdl.501
/Library/Caches/com.apple.user501pictureCache.tiff
Here are some terminal commands:
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
cd /Applications
Your current user is:
echo $USER
Let's assume myuser
To find out your UID and GID do:
cd ~
ls -ln
ls -l
Or, you can use the id command.
id
compare the output and write down what you find.
You best use the numeric value for your userid. In this case it is 500. To list all the files owned by a userid do:
sudo find / -user 500 -exec ls {} \;
#And you need to do this from an administrator id.
/* adding a -x before the / limits the search to the current file system. *
# To stop the display press control-c
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464 {} \;
#And you need to do this from an administrator id.
Hope this helps a little.
Robert
PS. This is a lot, but I hope it helps.

Thanks!
I wouldn''t recommend any of them, I've tried them, including the one mentioned above. The performance is not acceptable and they seem somewhat unstable, I couldn't be certain they don't cause other problems for your computer. My advice would be to wait for Mountain Lion

Can you have more than one apple id under the same account

can you have more than one apple id under the same account

Stop using the same Apple ID for iMessage on these devices. Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID shown, sign out, then sign back in using a unique ID for each device. (Or, just sign out and stop using your Apple ID for iMessage.)

Can you share music between 2 Apple ID's on the same network?

Can you share music between 2 Apple ID's on the same network?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can share content between 2 libraries that have different ID's for the iTunes Store, yes.
You need to make sure that both libraries are using the same ID for home sharing though (from the File menu)

Can you share iTunes music w/Apple TV and Airport Express?

Can you share iTunes music between Apple TV and Airport Express?
I have been very happily using 2 Airport expresses to share my itunes library from my iMac to 2 other rooms. I just bought an Apple TV for the bedroom (and I ASSUMED to replace the Airport Express), and can not figure out any possible way to have the same music in 3 rooms any more.
Anybody have any ideas?

I think you may have misunderstood the OP, I believe they wish to be able to walk from room to room and listen to the same music over the tv and the express. itunes will send music to the tv and the express at the same time but in two different streams, so even if you chose the same music over each device it would be quite difficult to sync.

the money received from the sale toward an iPhone 5.
