Since upgrading to 10.6.8, I can't sync to my calculator and my ipod nano flashes yellow.   Could 10.6.8 have closed some ports needed?

I have a TI-92+ calculator, and the TI Connect software to sync it.
Since the 10.6.8 update, I can't access the calculator to add software.
The cable reads as present in System Profiler.
Also, my iPod Nano is flashing yellow but not mounting in iTunes.
I am wondering if 10.6.8 is blocking a port the TI Connect software needs.
The iTunes issue might be resolved by ripping iTunes out, deleting it, and reinstalling it.
But I tried that with TI Connect and it didn't help.
I just got a bunch of software to put on the calculator and can't access it !

It depends on what iMac you have. If it is an old PPC (G4 orG5) iMac then no further upgrades are possible. If it an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is 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
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (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):
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion
or Mountain Lion:

  • HT1386 I can't sync my podcasts on my new ipod nano 6th gen

    I can't sync my podcasts on my new ipod nano 6th Gen. Music syncs just fine.

    In iTunes, when your iPod nano (Hhhmmm! This is the iPod Touch forum, but never mind) is showing in iTunes, look on the Device/Podcasts pane and choose the Sync Podcasts options that you want.

  • I have a desktop pc with iTunes. I just purchased a mac air book. Can I sync all of my devices, iPhone, iPod, iPad, to both computers or do I have to pick one. I would like to have iTunes on my mac, but I'm afraid I will run out of hard drive space.

    I have a desktop pc with itunes. I just purchased a Mac Air book.  Can I sync my devices, iphone, ipod, ipad, to both computers. Or do I have to pick one? I would like to have itunes on my mac, but i am afraid I will run out of hard disk space. Do I need to set up a seperate account on my Mac so I can load some music on it if I plan to keep my devices synced to my PC?  Would it be possible to sync only my Iphone to my Mac?

    To get that much storage, you need to look to professional online services.  Pro-level hosting accounts may offer you that much (well, many will offer as much storage as you are prepared to pay for), or Amazon professional cloud services.  You could also store the files on a home machine and pay for a professional hosting service so you could stream them over your own account (assuming your ISP connection and agreement allows for the bandwidth used).  You would still need to deal with the issue of finding an app for the iPad that supported avi streaming.

  • HT204370 can I download onto SD card and play movie in the "in car" dvd players (which have a SD port)

    I have a new in car dvd player (one in the head rests). It says that you can put movies on a SD card and play them rather than using DVD's. In itunes, can I download movies onto an SD card?

    Nope

  • Since upgrading to version 8.1, iTunes "can't find original music files".

    I've been building an extensive music file since the first iPod. It's about 110 GB large and for about three years I've stored it on an external drive with absolutely no problems. Now, within hours of upgrading to iTunes 8.1, every listed item on my iTunes library has an exclamation mark next to it and the message *"The song "whatever" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"* Of course I can show iTunes where the song is and then it will play it but I'm not gonna do that for 110 GB's worth of music! And yes, I've gone into iTunes preferences and told it again and again where the iTunes library is located but that doesn't work. Does anyone have a fix for this? And oh by the way, I will NEVER AGAIN let Software Update sway me into upgrading to a new version of iTunes until it's been up and running without bugs for at least three months!

    Have you tried, importing the music into iTunes again? So delete the music from iTunes only not the system, & then import to see if it finds your musics?

  • Since the last 3 upgrades (thru Firefox 7.0) I can't print a web page. This is true using 2 different printers. I have an iMac 10.6.8.

    Since the last 3 upgrades (thru Firefox 7.0) I can't print a web page. This is true using 2 different printers. I have an iMac 10.6.8.

    Just read that the default memory storage on FF is set to 5 mbs. You can up that by clicking on tools, advanced and overriding the default and set it to 50 mbs (if you use lots of tabs) or 10 mbs (if you use just a few).
    I open a blank tab and clear the cache periodically, while I am working. I can have several tabs open and watch videos on Youtube, by doing this. Have you cleared your cache?
    Since I have an older computer, I've also used CCleaner for years. I use it often, but always before signing off. You can get it free...search for CCleaner, download from Pirifoam free. I didn't change any of the settings and it clears crap left behind from uninstalling programs, clears all browsers at once of: cookies, history, passwords, etc. I love it!
    I had freezing, before using the "open blank tab, clear the cache" thing. Now I have no problems. Plus, as I said...you can change the default memory usage for FF and that should help too.
    Hope this helps! Good luck! :)

  • Ever since upgrading to iTunes 11.0, I can no longer sync Contacts and Calendar from my iMac (10.7.5) To my iPad2 (6.0.1) via Wi-Fi.  I believe All my settings are correct.  Device is recognized and sync From iPad is possible.

    Ever since upgrading to iTunes 11.0, I can no longer sync Contacts and Calendar from my iMac (10.7.5) To my iPad2 (6.0.1) via Wi-Fi.  I believe All my settings are correct.  Device is recognized and sync From iPad is possible.  Tablet is past warranty, so TechSup won't help.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you Meta, but I could not get the calendar and contact sync with Gmail to work. Apple support already suggested to use Google or a Windows PC. Maybe I should actually reset and try my old Windows PC. Seriously, ... can this be the solution after a Mac OS update for pure Apple users?

    I honestly don't know if DW CS5 is compatible with Win 8.1.  The OS compatibility FAQ only mentions DW CS6 & CC.

    Maybe someone else can shed more light on this.

  • Since upgrading to os 10.6, I can't drag email addresses into my address book

    Since upgrading to OS 10.6, I can no longer drag email addresses into my address book. Is there a quick way to restore this function that had worked in OS 10.4 but is apparently disabled in 10.6? Is there a work around someone figured out that's quick? I wish Apple would send out a patch to fix this problem. Any news on this front?

    James,
    Although slightly different than the problem you are having, perhaps 10.6: Change Mail's 'Copy Address' behavior - Mac OS X Hints will help with your problem.

  • Calls have been dropping out mid-call (after initially working) with full reception since upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS5 (can hear them but they can't hear me).

    Calls have been dropping out mid-call (after initially working) with full reception since upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS5 (can hear them but they can't hear me). The call initially works but then after a minute or so, they stop hearing me, even though I can hear them. Sometimes it goes the other way and I can't hear them.
    Please advise how to remedy ASAP.

    PS: I have had full reception bars when this has occured on a 3G network in Sydney, Australia (3 Mobile).

  • After upgrading to 11.0.1, I can't sync my music or videos

    After upgrading to 11.0.1, I can not sync my music or videos.  I have restored the ipad many times, tried to sync only a few playlists, reset the ipad (restart button and home button).  No problems with contacts, mail, calendars, or apps.  Any suggestions where to attempt fix?

    To the original question of how to sync. If you have tried the usual routes via selecting Playlists from your Device Music page. And/Or Drag and dropping a playlist onto your device and neither work, it may be that your songs are unchecked.
    Right Click on a song in your playlist you are trying to sync. If the entryies at the bottom give you the option to Check selection. Then click this and repeat for all songs in that playlist. You can select all songs in a playlist by Cmd + A
    If you see Uncheck Selection then this is not the cause. It must be something else.

    How can I, or can I export my songs on my iPod back to my computer?
    The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

  • Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.

    Lots and lots of questions
    The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
    https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
    It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers.
