Can i jump from 10.7.5 to 10.8.5

Any harm in jumping from 10.7.5 to 10.8.5? I never updated to mountain lion but need to to use a new software but I don't want to go beyond what CS4 can support.

Yes, you can.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. Use the code to redeem a download of Mountain Lion from the App Store. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later.
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model
             Identifier 5,1 or later.
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later.
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?

  • I'm scared.  Can you help?  I can't jump from here to there.

    Dear Apple MobileMe
    I am very eager to make the move from MobileMe to iCloud, but...
    As you can see from your own email, this is far from simple 
    My wife and I totally depend on my Macbook Pro (1), my old Powerbook that my wife uses (2), our iPhones (3 & 4), our iPad (5), my Time Machine, and my MobileMe (6), including Backups to our iDisk on MobileMe to keep our lives running.
    iCal's synced across 6 Apple platforms
    Address Books synced across 6 Apple platforms
    Email synced across 6 Apple platforms (me using Mail and wife using AOL)
    Bookmarks synced across 6 Apple platforms
    Various apple ID's synced across 6 Apple platforms
    You get the picture
    I would hate to mess this delicately balanced Apple computer ecosystem up at all.
    iOS 10.7 requires that I upgrade a bunch of my key work apps and figure out a way to transfer a 10 year dependence on Quicken onto some other equally robust financial management platform that doesn't seem to exist.  Just to add insult to potential injury.
    I'm scared.
    Wish this whole process could be 500% more automated.
    We've been on Macs  and other Apple devices since 1987.  I can't keep track of all of my "Apple ID's" for this and that that you've asked me to set up for each device and for each service over the years.  Everything's registered with you. 
    Devices
    MobileMe email aliases
    iTunes
    iDisk
    App Store
    AppleCare(s)
    MobileMe
    Apple.com support (here)
    Apple ProCare
    Apple iDisk Public folder
    etc.
    etc.
    You should be able to gather all of my identities together into one place and figure out the best way to migrate me to the new Apple iCloud Garden of Eden.
    You've got to find a way to help us work all this out.  It's more than intimidating.  We're frozen in fear.  We just can't jump from here to there.

    iCloud is here Dear MobileMe member, 
    iCloud is here and you can now make the transition from MobileMe. You can move your
    MobileMe mail, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks to iCloud, and keep your me.com and
    mac.com email addresses. iCloud is a breakthrough set of free cloud services, including iTunes in the Cloud, Photo Stream
    and Documents in the Cloud, that works seamlessly with your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or
    PC to store your content in iCloud and push it to all your devices. When content changes on one
    device, all your other devices are updated automatically and wirelessly. 
    Making the Move
    Before moving to iCloud, make sure that your iOS devices and computers have the required
    software and your data is properly backed up by following these steps:
    Get iTunes 10.5.
    Download iTunes 10.5 to your Mac or PC.
    Update your devices to iOS 5.
    Update your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch to iOS 5 by connecting each
    device to your Mac or PC and following the instructions in iTunes.
    When you are asked to provide your Apple ID during iOS setup, use
    your MobileMe email address and password.
    Update your computers.Mac: Update to OS X Lion v10.7.2PC:   Update to Windows 7 or Windows Vista Service Pack 2 andinstall the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
    Back up your MobileMe data.
    For detailed instructions, review this article.
    Verify your contacts and bookmarks.
    Verify that your contacts and bookmarks are completely up to date on
    at least one device you will use with iCloud. They will be uploaded to
    iCloud from your devices after you move. iCloud will not copy any
    contacts or bookmarks directly from me.com.
    When you are ready, go to me.com/move and follow the instructions to move your account to
    iCloud. 
    Important Notes
    If your me.com or mac.com email address is used with more than one Apple ID, you may be
    unable to access some iCloud services. If this occurs, you can remove duplicate email
    addresses from your other Apple IDs by visiting My Apple ID. You can also use different Apple IDs for iCloud and your Store purchases (including iTunes,
    App Store and iBookstore). For more information and detailed instructions, review this article. You can make the move from MobileMe to iCloud anytime between now and June 30, 2012. For
    answers to some of the most common questions about the transition, see the MobileMe
    transition FAQ. Sincerely, 
    Apple 
    iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer
    with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is
    required for accessing email, contacts and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features
    are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices. Previous purchases may be
    unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

    You are receiving this email from Apple to notify you of service information regarding your MobileMe account.

    This is a user-to-user forum: you aren't talking to Apple here.
    I do sympathize with your situation: you are among many for whom upgrading is impracticable, but who are dependent on MobileMe facilities which will be withdrawn next June.
    As you say, you will need 10.7.2 to access iCloud on a Mac, and iOS5 for mobile devices.
    I can't offer you any easy solutions, but this list may at least clarify the exact situation for you:
    Your email, calendars, contacts and bookmarks, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud.
    Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery. will continue to work as before until next June.
    You will be able to access email, calendar and contacts on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
    You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
    You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
    You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
    Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
    There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).

  • How can I jump from Safari window to Safari window?

    Hey all,
    How does one jump from one Safari window to another? While Im at it, also from Tab to Tab?
    On Window to Window in WinXP, I would use Command/Tab. However, in OSX, if I Command/Tab, then I get a different program list other then available, open Safari windows.
    When in a single Safari window and have multiple tabs, to go from Tab to Tab, in Windows, you use Control/Tab. But in OSX, this does not work. I have tried variations to see if I could figure it out, but have been unsuccessful. Many thanks for any help and input.
    LH

    Command + ` is a system-wide function to toggle between open windows within any running app. Works for everything.
    In Safari 4 and 5, ShiftCommand (right or left) arrow moves tabs for me. I noticed that in Apple Discussions, should I have a "reply box" open, this copmmand will go to the that tab and stay there, highlighting text. Otherwise the combo wrks fine.

    Unless you install with a USB flash drive you have to have Snow Leopard running on the computer to be bale to connect to Apple to download Lion.
    Make sure your computer is capable of running Lion.

  • How can I jump from a portlet to another one in other page?

    Hi
    I'm doing a tasks list porltet, when the user makes a click over a task, the user
    has to see another porlet in other page. How can I activate a porlet residing
    in other page?
    Thanks for All

    In all portal versions you need to add the pageLabel param to the URL and the application
    automatically go the good page (for synthax look at the URL in the browser)
    For exemple in portal 8.1 using the bea tags add the following link in the jsp
    of the portlet one : go
    to the second portlet page
    You can also use a form instead just add the "_pageLabel" param to the form using
    directly
    an <input> tag not a <netui:param> tag that would prefix your parameter with the
    current portlet instance label.
    We did it for our project and it works.

  • How can I jump from scene to scene without settings being cleared

    I'm making a Jeopardy game. When someone clicks on the button with the dollar amount on it, I have it reset to a different scene on the button so the players know it has been used. When another button is clicked, the first button resets back to its original dollar amount, rather than the blank scene it was reset to.
    I'm not sure I'm wording the question very well, but I would appreciate any help you might have for me.
    Thanks!

    I did that here like this.
    In each button i have this code on my main screen i have this
    on(release) {
         indexscore = 100; (is the point value)
         cellnumber = 1; (i made the instance of each button "Cell" and then a number incrimenting....Cell1, Cell2.....
         gotoAndStop("Questions", 1);
    Once it goes to the Questions scene that is where i click a button that will add the index number to my total points depending on if they clicked the button for team 1 or team 2... then that goes to my Answer scene which shows the right answers.....
    This is the button that goes to the main screen from the answer scene
    on(release) {
         gotoAndStop("Main Screen", 1);
         blankcell = "Cell"+cellnumber;
         setProperty(this.blankcell, _alpha, false);
    i have blankcell declared at the beginning of the game as a global var
    this code works so far but atm as soon as i try to have more than one button disapear it doesnt work, the problem i see is that im telling it to go back to that scene at frame 1, and that has all the buttons appear.....in other words it will make one disapear because its the button right before it but the frame with all the cells will override as soon as i try to get another button to dissapear.

  • Can I jump from 10.4 to 10.6 with memory purchase.

  • I can jump from 5.5 to 7.0?

    I currently have Captivate 5.5 and want to upgrade to 7.0
    Do I  need to go 5.5 -> 6.0 -> 7.0 or can I jump from 5.5 to 7.0?

    I think it's closer to the truth to think of the Subscription model not as 'purchasing' a Captivate license, but more like you're 'renting the right to use' the current version of Captivate. 
    It's the same difference as buying a house compared to renting the same house.  Once you own something, nobody can take it away from you (legally).  However, if all you're doing is renting that house or car or whatever, then as soon as you stop paying the rent, you lose the right to keep using it. 
    If you enter the subscription program, you can only continue to use the software if your subscription is paid up.  It's a smaller up front cost than purchasing the boxed edition, but it ends with your last payment.
    Functionality-wise, I've not seen any indication that the subscription Cp7 is any different to the boxed-license Cp7.  However, subscribers will likely get more frequent bugfixes and updates (as Cp6.0 users were horrified to find out when Cp6.1 arrived).

  • Can I update from OS 7.0.3 to 8.1.2?

    Decided to bite the bullet, but is it not better to update in sequence?  Can I jump from 7.0.3 to 8.1.2?

    Sure.
    I'd suggest that if you have a computer, do the update via iTunes. That way it installs the whole operating system, not just the skinnied down 'different parts' that happens over the air.
    Besides, you have no choice but to skip since Apple is only signing 8.1.3 so there are no increments available.

  • How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

    I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
    drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                             B (jump to subform2)
                             C (jump to subform3)
    subform1
    subform2
    subform3
    ....end of form

    Hi,
    you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
    From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
    switch (this.rawValue) {
              case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
              case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;

    When you still have the problem after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod then you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment a th Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    If it "joined" my network is it extending the coverage of my wifi network ?
    Please review my previous answer in the post above......
    But, the Express does not  "extend" or "repeat" the wireless signal when it joins a network.  In other words, wireless devices cannot connect to the AirPort Express the way that you have it set up.
    If so can my Airport Extreme be set up to "join" my network and also extend the coverage of my network ?
    Again, please review my previous answer in the first reply above......
    The AirPort Extreme does not have this type of capability.
    If you have both an AirPort Extreme and an AirPort Express.....my suggestion....again, found above in a previous post.....
    It takes a minimum of two Apple routers to extend a signal using wireless.
    You could do this by connecting the AirPort Extreme to your cable router using a permanently installed Ethernet cable and then configuring the AirPort Extreme to "create a wireless network".
    Then add an AirPort Express in a location where it can pick up a strong wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme and configure the Express to "extend a wireless network".
    You would not use the wireless on your cable router at all, unless you wanted to reserve that network for guests or something similar.

  • Hey guys, Just want to know if i can jump from osx 10.5.8 straight to 10.6.4? Is there an update in between ? All i see available to purchase from apple is osx 10.6 (there is no third number)

    Hey guys, Just want to know if i can jump from osx 10.5.8 straight to 10.6.4? Is there an update in between ? All i see available to purchase from apple is osx 10.6 (there is no third number) but yet i saw a guy online selling snow leopard 10.6.3 so it left me wondering if i would need to purchase two upgrades as oppose to one!
    Cheers

    Updates from 10.x.0 to 10.x.last are traditionally free, and are available via Software Update.
    The version upgrades from 10.x to 10.y will traditionally cost you some money.
    Make sure your Mac meets the requirements for 10.6 — if you're on PPC, you cannot upgrade to 10.6.  (For reference, here are the Lion 10.7 system requirements.  The 10.7 upgrade requires 10.6.6 or later, and can be purchased by calling Apple directly and acquiring a download code, if it doesn't show up in the Mac App Store for you automatically.  I don't think your hardware would be supported with 10.8, if you're presently running 10.5.)
    In any case, you can purchase an official Apple Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD disk for US$20.
    Back up your system before installing the new software.
    Once you install 10.6, you'll run software update and the 10.6.8 combo update will be downloaded and installed for you.  That's free.  10.6.8 allows you to use your trackpad, as well as access the Mac App Store and some other tools; it's the most recent version of 10.6.
