2 different computers but want January upgrade

Hello - my ancient laptop houses my email (no additional space & not worth more $$) but I sync my tunes etc with my husbands's laptop - both Windows XP. The Apple Store in Toronto said I could buy the upgrade, by loading ITunes onto the ancient laptop, get the upgrade & do the sync. But ... the Apple site clearly says the January upgrade's System Requirements are that you must load the January upgrade onto the computer you regularly sync with. What's right??? With thanks. Toronto Sassy.

In this case the Apple site is correct you need to sync with the computer you purchased the update on as it will have a small file called "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" and if this file isn't present when you sync then the new apps will be lost.
You could try this workaround as long as you use the same itunes account to log into, what you could do is copy that file to your other computer and make sure it's in the proper location C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\ and then when you sync the apps will stay on the IPT.

I bought my macbook pro in march 2007. I am currently running osx 10.6.8, but want to upgrade to lion or mtn lion. Apple website says i need a mid 2007 or later macbook pro, how do I tell if my Macbook pro will support this upgrade?

The Mid-2007 model didn't come out until June 2007, so you must have bought an earlier model. It won't run Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.x), but it might run Lion (10.7.x) if you can get hold of a copy, depending on which earlier model it is.
Lion requires at least a Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The first MacBook Pros came out in January 2006, but they had "Core Duo" processors (no "2"). The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pros came out in October 2006. You could have bought either in March 2007.

I am on OS X 10.5.8 but want to upgrade to mavericks.

I am on OS X 10.5.8 but want to upgrade to mavericks.
I purchased mountain lion so I could install it and then upgrade to mavericks but can't redeem my purchase voucher as I have to do it in the Mac App Store which I can't access on 10.5.8.
Can anyone help?!

You need to update to 10.6.8 in order to advance to 10.7, 10.8, or 10.9.

Mountain Lion is the best OS yet, IMHO.

The phone was jailbroken. That's what that error indicates. You can't get help here. You can't get help from Apple.
Try Google.

If you bought your phone from an official source, like a carrier and not in some 'market / ebay', then you can update with no issues.
If you bought it from other than a carrier then you have to take your chances.

Hi nino8881
1) It has to be an iMac Mid 2007 or newer. If this is the case ...
2) Make sure you have Lion or the latest version of Snow Leopard. (You can't upgrade from 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion.)
3) If step 1 & 2 are checked, you can download OS X Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store and install it.

Currently Own CS3 but want to upgrade to The Creative Cloud...

I currently own Adobe CS3 but want to upgrade to the Photography Creative Cloud (Photoshop and Lightroom). Do I need to uninstall CS3 from my computer before I buy the Creative Cloud?

No, you do not need to uninstall CS3 before installing CC. You should still be able to use it (not sure if there will be any issues though).
What you might try before buying is installing CC as a 30 day trial. That will make things clear without having to chance the investment.

Browser freezes during page loading and then either shows the cause as silverlight, or flash to be the cause, on two different computers, since last 3 upgrades

Since the last three upgrades of Firefox the browser starts to load a web page then freezes. A pop up states that either silverlight or flash have stopped working. This can last for as long as two minutes before it continues to load, or for as little as five seconds.
I have tried various methods to cure this, by reinstalling silverlight, flash, and Firefox.
The only permanent cure is to revert back to an older version of Firefox. I would continue with an earlier version but I get sick and tired of popups from the likes of Yahoo, and yourself telling me to upgrade.
I have also put the the program back to basics, and this is a pain because when I find it's still the same I have to reload all the add ons. Maybe you could devise a method where we only need to click a button to put everything back as it was before resetting it to default.
This problem is occurring on two totally different computers, both running Intel gear, one i7 at 3.5, with 8 meg of ram, one core 2 duo with 4meg of ram, no drain from graphics cards as they all have their own ram.
i7 desktop Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, and Dell XPS Laptop core 2 duo Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit both latest windows 7 versions

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

I do not want to change my plan, but want to upgrade my device is that possible anymore?

I want to upgrade my families phones but i do not want to change my plans one bit, will the big bad cell phone company let me do that or are they going to be horrible and make me change and yes I will only have a smart phone.

I just went through the same thing. Unfortunately, I was not aware that the plans had changed and went in for my 2 year upgrade under the impression that my plan would stay the same, as it has for the last several years. I was told that they were no longer grandfathering customers into the unlimited data plan any longer UNLESS I was to pay FULL RETAIL price of the phone I was upgrading to, even though I was eligible for the discounted upgrade. I was very annoyed to say the least. If you upgrade and do not want to pay full retail price for your new phones you will be forced to change your plan. They back you into a corner and you have to choose one or the other. Personally, I think it's a load of garbage. I've been a Verizon customer for over 12 years and do not feel like a valued customer at all. I was perfectly happy with the plan I had because I had the ability to choose what was right for me. Sadly, Verizon no longer offers any variety in their plan structures to suit everyone's needs nor do they allow the ability to customize your plan according to your usage. Now you have a choice of share everything with 2gb or 4gb of data, or pay as you go plans where you'll get charged for every minute, every text and every mb of data used. I'm very disappointed.

How can i save word documents to pages? I have an illegal copy of word but want to upgrade my software so I can utilize i cloud. I'm a writer and need to preserve my word documents.

I have an illegal copy of word and I want to upgrade my software so I can utilize i cloud. How can I save my word documents to pages
so that they are not lost in this upgrade? I do not have the disk to reinstall word after the upgrade.

You might want to post your question in the Pages forum. https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages
Also if it's the Office 2004 version of Word it won't work in Lion since it's a Power PC program. Office 2008 will work in Lion if it's already installed when you upgrade. But it won't install on Lion because the installer program uses Power PC code. Office 2011 is the only one that will install and work on Lion.

We need to deactivate 3 broken computers but we want to keep 2 that work.how do we do that

You use the Deauthorize All function and then reauthorize computers as needed. It isn't possible to individually deauthorize a broken computer.

I have Motion 4, but want to upgrade to Motion 5; do I need to pay the $49.99?

I have Motion 4, but, need to upgrade to Motion 5. Question? Do I need to pay the $49.99 from the Apps store or is there just an upgrade option?

That sounds like a major paid upgrade, v4 to v5. Updates are free in the Mac App Store, v4.3 to v4.4. Upgrades are paid, if it is a paid app.
