Can i get a newer version of bluetooth installed to a macbook in 2010?

I have an older version of the macbook so mine says LMP Version is 0x4, and i need 0x6 to share files on airdrop. Is there anyway i can get a new version of bluetooth or am i not able to share files through airdrop between my iphone 5 and macbook 2010?
Thank you

I do not know of away to retfit Bluetooth in an older Mac. If it were possible I suspect it would be prohibitively expensive.

    Try updating it on your computer. If you get a message that your iPhone is up to date then you actually have an iPhone 4, not a 4s.

  • IPHOTO says photos saved with newer version of IPHOTO. How can i get the new version of IPHOTO back on my system?

    I loaded IDVD on my IMAC. Now IPHOTO will not open pictures due to pictures saved with a newer version of IPHOTO. How can i restore the newer version of IPHOTO back on my system?

    Sounds like a possible damage library.  Give this a try: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I have firefox 4 Beta installed on my computer and I can't get the new Firefox 4 to install, so some of the functions don't work,such as dropdowns on Google Toolbar? How can I fix this?

    I installed Firefox 4 beta when it was available as a tester before Firefox 4 was released, so I had two versions of Firefox on my computer. When Firefox 4 was released this week, I installed it and it replaced Firefox 3.6.15. For some reason it seems it didn't install the full version of Firefox 4, instead it's a similar version to the Beta version. For example, the drop down on Google search doesn't work when you click on an item in the drop down. Also the orange button that is supposed to replace the buttons on the top left of the browser is not there. It still has the 8 buttons, ie File, Edit, etc. How can I get the full version to install on my computer? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it and I get the same result. My computer runs Windows XP Media center Edition OS. Please advise me on how to fix this. Thanks.

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    I also have a question. Have you ever been able to access these sites from the Firefox on that computer?

  • I can't get the latest version of iTunes installed on Mac.

    I can't get the latest version of itunes to update correctly. It seems to hang up on installing 2 items, running package scripts.
    I've tried downloading through the browser with no luck too. Suggestions?

    Have you tried removing your existing version of iTunes prior to doing the install, willie? See the following document for instructions:

  • I aam thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac.  Will I need to buy a new Apple compatible version of Lightroom, do I have to pay to upgrade or can I get the new version free?

    I am thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac.  Will I need to buy a new, Apple compatible, version of Lightroom, or can I upgrade to it, or can I get it free as I've paid for the PC version?

    Your licence is not platform specific, so Lightroom can be used on any two machines (Mac and/or WIndows), with one actually being used at any given time.
    So no, you're money's safe!

  • Can I get a newer version of iTunes if operating on OS X v10.5.8?

    Trying to get an iPhone 5 to talk to iTunes but it won't because I don't have the newest version.  I can't download the newest version because my 6 year old Mac is operating on OS X v10.5.8 which is apparently the newst version it will run.  Any solutions?  I am not going to by a new computer when this one works fine for what I use it for.

    You would need an Intel model from 2006 or later and would need to install Snow Leopard.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.

  • The older version would allow to save tabs when closing, how can i get the new version to do the same?

    the previous version would ask something like 'save file' when i would close firefox. as i use various tabs this is a very helpful feature for me. i would like to get this same feature on the new version, otherwise i want to know how to go back to the older version.
    thanks

    Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
    # Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

  • How can I get the new version of iTunes to work like the old one?

    When I upgraded to iTunes 11, the next time I synched to my iPods etc, many, if not most, of the favorite podcaststhat  I had saved in my library got deleted.  We are a Mac family and three of us download different podcasts to three different computers.  All our dealings (purchases) have been handled through a single Apple ID account. 
    Since the change to version 11, all the podcasts are jumbled together.  I want to subscribe to different podcasts than my wife or son, but our different computers are being treated as one.   I'll click to be a subscriber and my son will get the downloads, and vice versa.  What a mess!
    Is the registry of all three units to a single Apple ID the source of the problem?

    When you say "not possible," I assume you mean I can't get it to look like the old version.  When I wanted to update the different podcasts, I could hit refresh and select from those available.  That seems off the table.  And what's with the confusion between computers?

  • When I try to move the new firefox icon into my OSX applications folder I get a message telling me I don't have permission. How can I get the new version of Firefox into my applications folder?

    I downloaded the new version of firefox for Mac OSX.
    I dragged the firefox icon over my applications folder.
    A message window asked if I wanted to replace an older version of the application. I clicked "yes".
    Another message window popped up and said I did not have permission.
    What now?

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

    Running XP Home edition and new iTunes 10.2.1 will not install for me either. Bonjour.msi is claimed to be missing even though I have tried manual download and install of Bonjour index. This seems a problem since 2008-2009 from Google search and was being cured with Windows Installer Cleanup that is no longer available for download to help this issue. Apple seems to say remove and reinstall but my system will not let me unistall either, even trying to use the proper order as outlined in this support area.
    I know this is just a time bomb waiting to shut me and my phone down. Help? Someone
    the Chkdsk had no result. My Safari also hangs up with no end about 3/4 thru. wanting tghe Bonjour.msi Tried in Add/ Delete Control Panel to restore Bonjour.msi with no result also. Anybody working Apple or just diddling with their phones?? and Pads>>>

  • Firefox crashes when loading certain pages and I can't get the new adobe flash to install so I can't listen to everything. I have a Linux system.

    Do I need to install an other more update version? I just can't get adobe to install. Also I can't get ANY copier, printer, etc. to work on this system. I don't want to remove Linux or Firefox because they catch all the "junk". Can you help? I'm not the best at this and I will do my best.

    I had that problem myself and was forced to download the installer for "other browsers" using Internet Explorer at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ . After I did that it installed correctly. You can also try downloading the FULL installers for flash at http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html . Just make sure that all browser windows are closed before you run either of these.
