Can I upgrade straight from 3.0.19 to 3.6.10 without losing bookmarks, history etc

Can I upgrade straight from 3.0.19 to 3.6.10 without losing bookmarks, history etc? I can't afford to lose all of these as they are work-related.

All your bookmarks history etc... is stored in your user profile on your pc, not in the install directory of firefox so when you install a newer version it only over writes the files in its install directory and not your bookmarks etc...
There is also some add-ons that can backup all your user data so that you can restore them later.
or
If you want to be safe you can manually backup your profile before you begin the upgrade.
On Windows Vista or 7 you will find your profile at;
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<random-generated-profile-name>.default
On XP I believe it is at;
C:\Document and settings\<username>\Application Data\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<random-generated-profile-name>.default
Just copy the contents of the above folder to somewhere else on your hard drive and if your bookmarks didn't copy over then you can manually place the files back into the above directory.

Lion won't boot or install if there isn't EFI or UEFI firmware.
You can focus on Intel side because that is simple and easier (though because some early "Core Duo" models are cut off from 10.7 and only Core2Duo and above are supported).
There is no firmware support. The logicboard can't. There is no PowerPC code in Lion, which was the heart of the G5 kernel.
Lion integrates the iPad and other iOS devices with the desktop and iCloud along with Apple's AppStore.   There is a lot of 'something' and what value or benefit it offers to the traditional desktop OS, I think the jury will have to decide.
But 10.4.11 may also be the most optimized Apple OS for the PowerMac platform.
Excellent value on Apple refurbished equipment -

I am currently running tiger on a 2007 model. I want to get an iPod touch as my classic died. To be able to get a touch Ive been told I need to upgrade to snow leopard. Can I upgrade straight to snow leaped from tiger? Some one please help!

i currently have a 2207 iMac and I'm running tiger. I had an iPod classic which synced up beautifully but it has just died. iPod touch's are the only things that are on the market now as classic are no more. I've been told that an iPod touch won't qork on tiger operating system and I need to get snow lWoodard. Can I upgrade straight to snow leopard or do I need to get leopard first? Also will the new iPod touches work with snow leopard? Many thanks, please help me as I keep getting different answers. Ben

And the only way to figure that out would be verifying my disk using the Disk Utility?
Thank you for that. If I am not missing out on anything by skipping Lion then that will be my option. A few extra dollars in my pocket is always a good thing.

HT1338 can I upgrade straight to lion without purchasing snow leopard if I am running on OS 10.5.8

can I upgrade straight to lion without purchasing snow leopard if I am running on OS 10.5.8?

Well, yes, if your Mac meets the requirements, you can afford to erase the drive completely, & don't mind paying $10 more for Lion on a Flash stick than Snow Leopard/10.6 on DVD & Lion/10.7 download from the App Store is.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they do still have it:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
Lion/101.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.
Or, if you can afford to erase everything & spend $10 more than the 10.6 Disc & 10.7 from the App Store...
Or if you can erase your disk...

HT201475 I am currently running OSX 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade straight to Yosemite and if I can what issues will I face?

I am currently running OSX 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade straight to Yosemite and if I can what issues will I face?

1. It depends on what Mac model you have. If it's incapable of running Yosemite, installing an intermediate version won't help with that.
2. You'll lose the ability to run PowerPC software, and some other programs may also be incompatible. If something goes wrong, you might lose data; back your computer up first. There aren't any issues specifically associated with skipping versions.

I can't upgrade Premiere from 2014 to 2014.1 on Windows 8.1? It says it's 'up to date'. I tried to uninstall from 'Control Panel' and reinstall. It didn't help. I didn't have that problem on Mac. Please help. My Premiere projects from Mac are 2014.1 and can't be opened on Windows with older Premier.

Upgrade straight from OS X 10.2.8 to OS X 5?

Is it possible to upgrade straight from OS X 10.2.8 to OS X 5? Will I need to get all the systems in between?

Hi-
Your 400MHz machine is only capable of running up to 10.4.11.
Your machine is far below the minimum requirements for 10.5x.

BTW, you can upgrade straight to 10.4x with the proper retail install disc.

Can't share Internet from Mac to AirPort Extreme via Thunderbolt Ethernet

Hey there!
I'm trying to essentially use a 2013 AirPort Extreme as an AP for the network. It's connected via WAN to a Mac via a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter.
I'm having a hard time telling OS X (10.10)/ OS X Server that I want it to take the Internet from "iPhone USB" and share it with "Thunderbolt Ethernet". With or without OS X Server's DHCP/DNS "help". I've been experiencing issues with Internet Sharing for years on OS X, so the fact that I'm having an issue today is no surprise, I'm just hoping someone out there has a solution.
If I go back to Internet Sharing in System Preferences, the "share Internet connection from" combo box is blank, rather than showing "iPhone USB".
Also, I'm unsure as to whether I should be using OS X Server... I know it's not necessary for simple Internet connection sharing, but I'd like to use DHCP and DNS services with this setup at least eventually.... Obviously just getting Internet to the AirPort is first-priority.
Any ideas?

Hello Kevin,
Let me try to get this straight, it seems like you want to bridge the fee-based wifi network and your home wireless network using your MB.
I don't know if you have done the following steps already on your MB:
1) Choose Apple > System Preferences, and then click Sharing.
2) Select Internet Sharing.
3) Choose a network service from the “Share your connection from” pop-up menu, AirPort in your case.
4) Select a networking service to share your Internet connection from the “To computers using” list, ethernet in your case.
Sorry, yes indeed it is straight from Mac Help titled "Sharing your Internet connection." and it sounds like you have done the sharing part already. You wrote about something wrong with your MB. It might be helpful to write what is wrong with your MB, AirPort Extreme, or your "other computers." Preciseness can definably help us help you.
May you solve the problem.

How can i upgrade version from 10.6.8 to 10.9.4

How can i upgrade version from 10.6.8 to 10.9.4?

Before embarking on a major OS upgrade, it would be very prudent if you to backup your current system to an external connected and Mac formatted Flash drive OR externally connected Mac formatted hard drive. Then use either OS X Time Machine app to backup your entire system to the external drive OR use a data cloning app to make an exact and bootable copy (clone) of your entire Mac's internal hard drive. This step is really needed in case something goes wrong with the install of the new OS or you simply do not like the new OS, you have a very easy
Then, determine if your Mac meets ALL minimum system install requirements.
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
Next,
If you run any older Mac software from the earlier PowerPC Macs, then none of this software will work with the newer OS X versions (10.7 and onward). OS X Snow Leopard had a magical and invisible PowerPC emulation application, called Rosetta, that worked seamlessly in the background that still allowed older PowerPC coded software to still operate in a Intel CPU Mac.
The use of Rosetta ended with OS X Snow Leopard as the Rosetta application was licensed to Apple from a company which got bought out, I believe by Micrsoft and Appe could no longer secure their rights to continue to use Rosetta in later versions of OS X.
So, you would need to check to see if you have software on your Mac that maybe older than, say, 2006 or older.
Also, check for app compatibilty here.

If you have any commercial antivirus installed and/or hard drive cleaning apps installed on your Mac, like MacKeeper, CleanMyMac, TuneUoMyMac, MacCleanse, etc. now would be a good time to completely uninstall this apps by doing a Google search to learn how to properly uninstall these types of apps.
These types of apps will only cause your Mac issues later after the install of the new OS X version and you will have to completely uninstall these types of apps later.
Once you have determined all of this, you should be able to find the latest version of OS X Mavericks by clicking on the Mac App Store icon in the OS X Dock and then login to the Mac App Store using your Apple ID and password.
You can then begin the download and installation process of installing OS X 10.9 Mavericks from the Mac App Store.

Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?

Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?
For those who have done this,
1. What quirks did you find that you had to overcome in your installation (I know that everyone's environment is different and produces differest results)?
2. What part of your code broke for which you had to find fixes?
Tips and suggestions for a smooth installation, besides following the installation document.
Thanks!

Create a car (archive file) in CF 9 enterprise which will capture all CF 9 settings like Data sources, Web services etc. Make sure when you are doing this, pop up blocker is disabled.
NOTE : While creating the archive file, give the full name with the absolute path in the package name. For example C:\Test\mypackage.car
Then move this car file into the server where you want to install CF 11. Install CF 11 and then deploy this archive (car) file. All CF 9 settings will be migrated to CF 11 enterprise.
Else, if you want to install CF 11 on the same server where CF 11 is installed, then remove the connector for all the websites which are configured with CF 9, make sure the CF 9 services are running and then run the CF 11 installer and at the end of CF 11 installation, you will get a dialogue box which will ask you to migrate CF 9 settings in CF 11.
Run the Code Analyzer in CF 11 Administrator to check whether any the CF 9 code used in your application is breaking in CF 11 or not

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

Please if anyone can help apple doesn't seem to care?

If you need to reinstall Mac OS X 10.8.x (there is no 10.8.6 yet, by the way), restart your Mac, hold down the Option key so you see all the bootable partitons, and boot to the Recovery Partition. From there you can reinstall Mountain Lion. You will need a good Internet connection.

New to Mac....can transfer files from Toshiba to Mac. But can't transfer files from Mac to Toshiba??? Can anyone help please?

New Mac user......own a new iMac and iPad and still use a Toshiba Laptop. Can transfer files from Toshiba to iMac but can't transfer files other direction?

Are you doing these transfers over a Network connection, the systems are networked together over your Home LAN? Or are you doing it with an external drive?
If an external drive Mac OS X can READ Windows NTFS formatted drives but can NOT WRITE to them. So you can co[py files to the drive on your Win PC and READ them on the Mac but Mac OS X can not Write to that drive so you can't copy files from Mac to that drive.
For an external drive to work on both systems, be able to Read and Write from/to that drive, it has to be formatted either FAT32 or exFAT.
