I have a MacBook 13 inch (Late 2008) with OS X 10.6.8 installed and every time I try to install Yosemite it tells me it cannot be updated on my MacBook. Why?

Because the minimum requirement, as stated it the Yosemite specs, is for a Late 2008 Aluminum MacBook.
MacBook – Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009
MacBook Air – Late 2008
MacBook Pro – Mid/late 2007
Mac mini – Early 2009
iMac – Mid 2007
Mac Pro – Early 2008
Xserve – Early 2009

Got a new iPad and every time in try to install pages it tells me I have to go through iTunes bc it's 20mb and I'm lost

I've been trying tobgo through iTunes to do it but this thing is driving me crazy bc it's going back nd forth nd I'm going in circles trying to figure this thing out

You have to download it in iTunes and then sync it with your iPad 2. The reason you have to do this is because there is a 10MB limit when downloading apps when using 3G.

The hard drive on my MacBook died and I had it replaced. I can't locate my website files and every time I try to open my idisk it looks for a name and password (even reset my apple id as prompted) I keep being told that it's the wrong name or password?

Hi vickkjayy11 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Just to be clear, we are a peer to peer support community and have nothing official to do with Apple.
So to your problem, when you say:
"I reset my macbook pro a few days ago"
What exactly happened? Did you have a Time Machine backup?
Read this:
OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
It would help to know the exact model (size and year) and which OS you're using.

My macbook is loaded with microsoft work and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open. Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

my macbook is loaded with microsoft word for macs and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open. This is what it says:
The application Microsof Word quit eunexpectedly. Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

Maybe the preferences file is corrupted. You should be able to find the Word preferences file in the folder:
your user name/Library/Preferences
Its name is com.microsoft.Word.plist
I suggest you drag this another folder and try Word again.
If that doesn't work then you might find clearing the cache files will fix the problem. You can do this manually but I never bother. Instead I use a program like Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner (shareware) or Onyx (free). These programs do lots of other maintenance jobs so it's worth having at least one of them.

Hi markw14322597,
I've just checked your account: Your subscription order is still pending, which is why you're unable to log in and use your subscription just yet.
It can take 24-48 hours for an order to process, but once it does you'll be able to log in and convert files.
Best,

HT5621 I have tried to changed my Apple ID and every time I try to use the new Apple ID it won't let me because when i try to update an app the old ID comes up to sign in. I deleted that account so it will not let me use my new one.

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID.
