HT1918 after succesfully updating apps for 18 months I am now told I cant update from the US store as I am in NZ. I dont know how to reset this. I have never accessed anything from the US

Step by step as I am not an ipad guru, please explain how do I change the Itunes store record of my locality to New Zealand. Out of the blue Itunes thinks I want to access the US store from NZ, so suddenly I cant update free apps after being able to do so for the past 18 months. I have not left the country in 18 months. .

To update from ios 6 Beta 4 to GM you need to follow these steps:
1. Connect Iphone to computer with itunes running.
2. Turn of iphone
3. Hold down off button for 3 second
4. While holding down off button hold the home button for 10 seconds
5. after the 10 seconds let go of the off botton and wait for 6 seconds
6. Wait then follow the Itunes restor and update walkthrough and it will download the latest version and update your Iphone for you.
I hope this works for everyone and can comfirm worked for my Iphone 4s

How can I update from Os X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion 10.8.4?

I am trying to update my Mac from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion 10.8.4. I have read online that I can no longer buy Mountain Lion from the App Store, and that I must purchase Mac X Maverick instead, but cannot find that on the App Store either. All I want to use this eBay computer for is for iTunes radio, which needs OS X 10.7 or greater. Could someone point me in the right direction for updating? I'm a grandma, fer Pete's sake! : ) Thanks to anyone who can help me.

Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

Can i update from os x 10.5.8 to mountain lion

can i update from os x 10.5.8 to mountain lion

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
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 at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (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:

HT204053 how do i update from OS X 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

How do I update fro OS X 10.5.5 to Mountain Lion?

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
         7. Xserve (Early 2009)
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
     Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
         See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

Updating from MAC OS X 10.6.8 snow leopard

I currently have a mac book pro MAC OS X 10.6.8 and i cant update because my computer wont go any further than the blank desktop background when restarting. It also looks like it skips the update downloads but still says they have downloaded and to restart the computer.

Hello Nicole,
Sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Mac. To get you started with getting it back up and running again, take a look at the article below to resolve issues with start up. Start with booting up into Safe Mode to see if it boots properly. If it does, then restart your MacBook Pro like normal and it should work after that. If not, look at the article for some additional troubleshooting.
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck

Hi LondonBoy777, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
Reapply the Combo update...
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...

Repair Permissions afterwards, reboot.
Does that work?

Cant update from 10.0.9.2372

I have purchased new blackberry Z10 from Canada Telus.
Now i moved to India and I have unlocked my carrier with Telus to use my Z10 in India.
I am glad to use that in India as well but i am unable to update the software from 10.0.9.2372.
Phone keeps give me message "You have the latest software".
so can you tell me how to update the phone with 10.0.10 version.

I wouldn't wipe. I would reload the OS:
To reload the OS after you have backed up your personal files, you should:
Step 1: Turn your device OFF and ensure it is NOT plugged into the computer. Make sure BlackBerry Link is NOT running.
Step 2: Go to this site:
www.BlackBerry.com/updates
Step 3: Click on Check For Updates. It might prompt you to install something, say yes. It will then show a screen looking for your device PIN.
Step 4: While your device is still OFF, plug it in using the USB cable. Once it's plugged in, turn the device ON.
Step 5: As soon as you turn the device ON, wait for the OK button on the computer screen to becomes enabled and click OK as soon as possible.
Step 6: The device LED will turn green and the reload of your OS will begin. This process can take a significant amount of time, depending on your Internet connection speed. The OS is about 950 MB in size so if your Internet connection is slow, you will have to be patient.
This will reload your device's OS with the newest OS and make your new again. Note that this will erase your device's memory (your SD card remains intact) so ensure you backup your pictures, music, etc first.

Cant update from 10.4.3 to 10.4.x

I have a PowerBook G4. I just reformatted the hard drive and did a clean
install of 10.4.3 from the DVD.
When I do a software update the only update that it is listing is iTunes.
I then downloaded the 10.4.4 standalone combo PPC update, but when I try to
install it
says that my system doesn't meet the requirements. As far as I can tell the
requirements for 10.4.4 are the same as for 10.4.3.
I also tried then 10.4.10 update, had the same problem. I believe that I had
10.4.11 previously on the computer.
What gives?

Download the 10.4.11 combo update here
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_4_11_Combo_Update__PPC
You can update directly to 10.4.11 with this combo update.
Cheers, Tom
