Why can't I download OS X Mavericks? The download option is malfunctioning. I already checked that my mac version can have free upgrade. I click download, but it just doesnt do anything. I went to purchase tab, clicked "download" next to the app but still nothing happens. It's not internet problem because everything else on the app store works. The only thing not working is Mavericks downloading and I don't know why. Please help.

To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
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),
MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/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)
Your Mac also needs:
OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
2 GB or more of memory
8 GB or more of available space
Since Mavericks requires 8GB's or more of free disk space, control click the MacintoshHD icon on your desktop or open the Finder, right or control click startup disk in the Sidebar on the left then click Get Info.
You'll see Available and Capacity. Make sure there's at least 15% available disk space.
If installed, disable anti virus software before downloading Mavericks.

  • When Mavericks was available, I was able to download it, which I did without checking that my Mac running 10.7.5 cannot run Mavericks.

    When Mavericks was available, I was able to download it, which I did without checking that my Mac (iMac5,1) running 10.7.5 cannot run Mavericks.  However I found that I was having some odd things happening - and asked the Finder for "Mavericks" to see if anything would appear.  The result was a page of 12 items
              1 3SHACK.PDF          1 3SHACK.PDF         1 3SHACK.PDF      index.jspa.html

              There may be other     Maverick-related  stuff, but can I just trash the above, or is there a better way to restore a pure 10.7.5  ??
                   Eric

              I have found, within the Apple site, that I can upgrade my 20inch, late 2006 iMac to 4GB RAM by replacing present RAM with two 2GB SO-Dimm in each of the two slots, although apparently the computer will only ever use a max. of 3GB.
              So that would be a start.   
              On back-up for the 250 GB Hard disc with 100 GB 'available', I have an external hard disc, 500GB but with four partitions, total space available maybe 300GB.
              So it looks as if I need a new external HD of probably another 500GB.
              Have you any further comments ?  In the meantime I will try to note any of the odd stuff, and postpone further action until after the New Year.
              Finally, I have Time Machine on a separate external HD of 500GB, with about 190GB available.
              Much appreciate you comments and asistance, meanwhile the Seasn's Greetings and Best wishes for 2014.

    What model year Mac and what version of OS X are you running.
    If this is on an older Mac with standard Rotating HDD it could be a sign the HDD is either to full of data or it is starting to fail. It could also be caused by 3rd party software you've installed.

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • I am running Safari on my mac. I also am using Hotmail. Whenever I click on a URL someone has sent me it won't do anything. Its blue like I can click it but I just can't. Is there any settings I can change or check? Thanks

    Maybe you copied the icon show in the window to your application and into your dock directly. Try closing your Firefox again. Eject the disc again. Then go to your application folder. You should see Firefox with a circle and cross through it. Open it. It should open without the blue icon appearing on your desktop again.

  • My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    What I had to was backup my device's data to either iCloud or iTunes. Once it was backed up I erased all of my settings as if my iPad just came out of the box. You set it up again and it will asked you to either start as new, back up from iTunes, or back up from ICloud. If you want to see if everything works you can set up as new, otherwise just pick the choice depending on where you backed up your information. Eventually it will restore all of your information and your iMessage and FaceTime should be working. It worked for me, if you'd like more/better instructions let me know!!

    Generally YES.
    It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
    Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
    Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
    Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
    After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
    iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
    Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
    That's all.
    Lupunus
    PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

  • What can be wrong with my iPhone 4?  There is no sound from incoming calls, SMS and even when I play music.  I already checked that it's not muted, volume is high and not set to "vibrate mode."

  • I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

    I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

    Same here, I have Logic Studio 8 and wouldn't mind staying with that version, except that the installer won't run on my new Macbook Pro as PowerPC apps are no longer supported. That's the message I get in any case.
    I use to run Logic on a 2006 Macbook Pro.
    I guess that makes me a very unhappy Apple user! I've been using Logic from the Emagic days, bought every upgrade only to see Apple kill what used to be one of the best Pro Audio application. Imagine if they had done the same to Photoshop, there would be a lot of unhappy designers out there
    Paying the full price for years to slowly see your daily app go down in price & efficiency until it's given away at $199 for semi pro users. Well, at least ProTools is stil alive & kicking so I guess that's the way forward now.
    This is coming from someone that never ever used a Windows machine to make music! Life is good still!
