    Hi,
    Your best bet at this point then is to contact iTunes Support and get them to straighten this out for you:
    https://expresslane.apple.com/Issues.action
    Select the options that best apply to your issue. You will have a chance to provide a written description before you submit. iTunes Support will get back to you via email, usually within 24 hours. Be sure to check your Junk/Spam email folder if you don't hear back by then.
    They should be able to sort it out for you...
    Good luck!
    Cheers,

  • HT1338 i cant update my MAC OS X 10.5.8 to a new version. (Im trying to update my itunes software) any suggestions

    i cant update my MAC OS X 10.5.8 to a new version. (Im trying to update my itunes software) any suggestions

    HI, sadly 10.5.8 doesn't support the newest iTunes.
    First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
    then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

  • HT1338 i cant update my Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a)

    hi
    i cant update my mac os x 10.5.8 (9L31a)

    If you really mean upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6 and beyond, first check if your Mac can handle it:
    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    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
    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.

    i cant updATE my mac because i forgot my administrator and key chain password.

    Hello bicolananggayon
    You can reset your password if you have the installation disk for you Mac by following the steps outlined below. After that is done and you have logged in you should have an option to create a new Keychain password.

  • I cant update my mac book itunes to 11.01

    I have a 2009 mac book and i cant updaye my mac book itunes 11.01

    Hi there Amy,
    You may want to take a look at the article titled "Troubleshooting Mac OS X installation and software updates (Mac OS X v10.6 and earlier)"
    There is a specific section that includes this information:
    Software Updates for Mac OS X and Apple applications for Mac OS X are often available in different ways:
    Software Update preferences
    Standalone installer from Apple Downloads.
    Try getting the software from a different source, or download it again.
    Hope that helps,

  • I cant update my mac

    when I try to update safari i get a volume not supported message but when i try to update mac osx 10.6.3 I cant because of a "an error occurred while evaluating javascript for the package" also when I try to update my mac from the apple->software update my mac says all my applications are up to date.
    So how do i fix this.

    Pop the one that's labeled Mac OS X Install DVD, restart holding down the C key, select your language, and follow the steps. On first boot you should have the OS version and build that shipped with the machine. Details on it are in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1159 Once the machine restarts, follow the steps I outlined above.

  • I cant update any mac software

    Every time I go to update any apple software, currently trying to the new versions of OSX and itunes but every time I ask to get the update It downloads it all with no problem and goes through most of the installation and at what seems like the last minute it comes back and says "there was an error and the update cannot be continued". It does this every time, we are talking about 5-10 repetitions here. ANY help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • HT201364 i Cant update my mac OS X V10.5.8 into a higher version., Anyone can help?

    Anyone can help me to this problem?.,Thanks .

    Also, unless you have a Core2duo (CoreDuo and CoreSolo are not Core2Duo), i3, i5, or i7 processor, you can't upgrade past 10.6.8. 
    See this user tip to see if your software is ready for 10.7 or higher:

When I launch illustrator CS4 I get a window message the reads   "some plug-ins in the additional Plug-ins folder are conflicting with application or user plug-ins. It will skip loading plug-ins from additional plug-ins folder."  there is a OK button that I must click on to close the message window and then illustrator will continue loading process, then a second window will appear reading  "Error loading plug-ins.  PhotoshopImport.aip"  there is a OK button that I must click on to close the message window and then illustrator will continue loading and launch.
    The problem is when I open a current file that has a psd link I will get a window message reading  "could not find a plug-in to read the link file _______ choose repair to locate the missing file, replace to select another file, or ignore to leave the link unchange."   When selecting a psd link /file it is greyed out which I cannot select it.  I can not select, choose, import or open any files/links that is a psd.

  • Cant update apps. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it. i can download apps,music with present mac note book but not apps. how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    cant update apps on my mac or iphone4. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it  . i can download apps and music.  how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • My iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

  • After updating my mac book pro to the osx yosemite.am getting some issues after starting up.a soon as it gets on the destop the screen start blinkingand i cant do anything

    After updating my mac book pro to the osx yosemite.am getting some issues after starting up.as soon as it gets on the destop the screen start blinking and i cant do anything.Please help me!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
