Order a new macbook and get the old operating system when it's delivered
Hi apple user,
A weird thing happed, in my opinion. On the 24 of august i did order my MacBook Pro witch i got in the 6sth of September. In the same period Apple launched snow leopard (28th august), i thought Apple would be good for there users and did install Snow Leopard on my laptop. Today i did find out (yes a bit late) they didn’t.
I remember they did offer to new users the option to get the snow leopard delivered, so i thought to call them and ask them for the update. But now I’m to late and they won’t send me the update, isn’t that weird? Order a new macbook witch is already old when you get it delivered (sounds like bill gates).
What’s your opinion about this?

It was built before Snow Leopard was finished. They are not going to take items out of boxes to update them which is why they offered the free update.
As noted -> Snow Leopard in the NL store is € 29,00.

I just got a new upgrade iphone from a 3G to 4G. My son updated the software with Icloud. I do not like it, it drains my battery. How do I get the old operating system back (without icloud). Also, I don't know how to close an APP anymore and I think that could be draining my battery as well. It doesn't work the same way when I doubled click and then touch the APP it doesn't give me a dash to close it up again.
Apple does not support downgrading the iOS.
As for icloud, go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.
As for battery drain...
Look through this...

Also, Settings>General>Background App Refresh: turn off apps you don't want refreshing data - this can preserve battery life.
Also try a reboot: press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go. -
One icon that appears is the one prompting to move it into the applications folder, along the blue one (flat box shaped, with the white Firefox icon, and a slot in the front, on the right side of the screen). I can't get these to stop reappearing.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I first downloaded the most recent Firefox (3.6.8)That should read "along with the blue one..."

Hi,
Im a new Mac user. I currently just bought a new MacBook Pro. The first computer I got apparently had a problem with the flex, so I had to go change it for a new one. The first one had the latest operating system, the second one the store gave me didn't, yet it's still a brand new computer, so I don't see why I should have to pay for the new operating system, which should already come with my brand new computer. So I am trying to contact apple so they may give me permission to download it from the app store for free, due to this inconvenience and first bad experience. The vendor tells me that sometimes new computers may come with old operating systems because they're from an old batch of new computers. Oh and by the way, I'm from Honduras, and bought it at Jetstereo, in Tegucigalpa (the capital). This store is a licensed distributor.
Hope someone can help me,
Ankie ZapataGo to the Mac App Store main page and click on Support under Quick Links.

Extend the EPM install to a new EOI and remove the old EOI's (server decommissioning). EPM version 11.1.2.1 and having essbase and planning; I understand removing EOI's is not as simple as 11.1.2.3 but any suggestion/steps would be of great help....
Next time try to create a topic that is not the question.
There was no option to remove epm instances in 11.1.2.1, basically the cloest you get is uninstalling the products on the server and hope that some of the info is removed from the epm registry
Cheers

Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?
This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that? -

Download the isntall file to your hard drive - don't install it over the internet.
If you are running anything Norton, turn that completely off before installing. -
entally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one? And I'm receiving e's just from the new one.
Move the "e's" (email messages?) to the old account first. You can drag and drop.
To remove an account in Thunderbird:
'''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|<select the unwanted account>|'''
Down at the bottom of the left-hand pane, '''Account Actions''' then '''Remove Account'''.
Are both accounts using POP? That could explain why new messages appear in the new account but not the old.
It could help to post your Thunderbird settings data: '''Help|Troubleshooting Information'''. Clear the "Include account names" checkbox. Click on "Copy text to clipboard", then paste (ctrl+v) into your next posting here. -

I got a iphone 5 but it does not work on my MacBook with Mac OSx 10.5.8 it says i need OSX 10.6.8 but it will not download because I need OSX 10.6 but it would load either. How do I get the older operating system to work with the IPhone5?
You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

What's the go with this latest update. Half my apps don't work and the iPad runs slower? How do I go back to the old operating system?
Make sure your apps are updated. You might try Settings > iTunes & App Store > Automatic Downloads - Updates = "On".
You cannot go back to an old operating system. -
5 days ago I bought a 13" MacBook Air from an apple store. It does not have Maverick on it! I paid full price for it, but since it has the old operating system I kind of feel like I bought a "clearance" item but payed full price for it! Does anyone have any advice, wisdom etc. This is my first Mac and I'm really bummed that it's not the latest and greatest. I know I can download maverick for free.....but are there other differences? Maybe something else that I thought I was getting but didn't? Thanks.
There is no difference, you didnt get "shorted" Mavericks is a FREE DOWNLOAD
Open the APP store and download Mavericks.
You didnt buy a "clearance" item, you just got an Air that was there at the shop before Mavericks was released.
There is no difference other than a 40 min. download. -
is it okay to upgrade from os x 10.6.8 to yosemity without first getting the other operating systems?
Hey there jpenilla,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Yes. The webpage below provides the answer to your question, about upgrading to Yosemite from OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6.8), and it provides additional information that you may find helpful.
Apple - OS X Yosemite - How to Upgrade
You can upgrade to OS X Yosemite from the following:
OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6.8)
OS X Lion (v10.7)
OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8)
OS X Mavericks (v10.9)
So long,

I am selling my Mac Mini. I recently purchased OS X Lion. When I restore to factory settings, how can I ensure that the operating system will still be Lion, and not the original operating system, which I believe was Snow Leopard?
If you bought Lion from the App Store, you can't legally or practically transfer it, because it's tied to your Apple ID. Reinstall the original software from the discs that came with the machine.
