Can I upgrade to Yosemite but Not Keynote
I am looking to update my system but due to work and compatibility issues, I can not update my Keynote to the most recent version. Before updating my system, I wanted to make sure that Keynote does not automatically update itself after installing Yosemite. If it does I will have to roll my system back to Mavericks so I can continue to work on my company Keynotes.
I looked for documentation online to confirm these updates are completely separate but I have not been able to find anything.
I appreciate any help/guidance.
When you download the OS, that is all that is being downloaded. Keynote, Pages, iMovie, etc. are not part of the OS itself; they are separate apps and will update/download separately. If you do not want Keynote to update, then make sure that you never hit "update all" in the Updates Section of the app store as that would include all the updates available. I update mine separately as I also do not want one particular app to update, so I make sure that I update each one separately and bypass the one I do not want to update.
In any case, make sure you have a full backup before upgrading - just in case.

I can't upgrade to Yosemite but I fulfill all requirements. If I try to upgrade to Mavericks I am forwarded to Yosemite again. It is a close loop with no answers. Anybody else is experiencing the same with a MacBook Air 1,1?
A MacBookAir1,1 can’t be upgraded past 10.7.5.

Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade. I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
Are others having the same problems?Try this. Worked for me.
- turn off your router
- turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
- turn off all iDevices
- do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
- turn on your router first
- ran the network set up wizard
- give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
Something which you don't have used before.
- turn on your Mac's and add your printer
- turn on your iDevices at least.
Should work after these steps.
It worked for me including all iDevices.

I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?
If you don't have it then you will have to reinstall Lion:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.
Then you can download and install Yosemite if your computer meets the system requirements:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 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 Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
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 cannot access iPhoto now I have upgraded to Yosemite. Not available in UK! What can I do? I have hundreds of photos I need access to and more to save on my computer.
iPhoto should be still in your Applications folder and will still work. But if you failed to keep it up to date then Try Terence's instructions here Is Iphoto gone ?i want it back!

Find my friends Icon disappeared after upgrade to ios 8. I tried restarting as well as reinstalled the app but its not working. I can find it in Usage, but not in spot light. Pla help!!
I have exactly the same problem on a 4S on iOS 8. Have tried uninstalling, deleting FMF from backup, resetting phone and restoring from backup, but the problem remains. Sometimes the icon appears on a backup Home screen in iTunes, but it never appears on the phone itself. The app is accessible by going to the store, purchases and opening it from there. The app appears to have been running the whole time, but becomes invisible anytime I return to the home screen.

I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
"To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
- I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
- in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.
If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
Cheers

Thinking of upgrading to Yosemite - but want to be able to downgrade to mountain lion - How?
Thinking of upgrading to Yosemite - but want to be able to downgrade to mountain lion - How?
Hi all.
I am wondering if I upgrade to Yosemite is there a way that I will be able to downgrade / revert back to mountain lion if I find out that too many of my most essential applications are no longer working?
I have read there have been compatibility issues between some of my most necessary / favourite applications I use in mountain lion and Mavericks, which is why I never upgraded to Mavericks.
However , I am noticing in the app store there are a lot of apps I am interested in which I no longer able to purchase / download because they require Yosemite, and mountain lion is out-dated.
However, if I upgrade my OS, I am afraid of incompatibility with the most important apps in my workflow though.
Thanks.Hi Arthur thank you very much for your response.
Sorry for my late reply.
My following question is summed up in the last sentence of this post.
[is only one time machine backup possible per external backup hard drive? Or can I make separate Time Machine backups for separate purposes?]
I went ahead and installed Yosemite.
There are some things I like about Yosemite and I might trial it for a little bit longer,
but after a couple of days of trials and trying out, I've decided that I think I generally prefer mountain lion better,
and I will reinstall it , and get a disk image of Yosemite and run that as a Virtual Machine when I need it.
[^ This is what I should have done in the first place.]
Before I installed Yosemite I [stupidly] used Time machine to back up only my application folders / application support / general system files,
[I used system preferences to exclude everything else in the TM backup] so that I would not have to reinstall my applications / essential system structures.
I did not back up the rest of my files and folders / whole machine though.
I should have done this.
I just didn't want to wait for about 800 gb of data to transfer [impatient].
[in retrospect I should have run Yosemite through a virtual machine within Mountain Lion to see if I liked it before installing it completely].
With Yosemite installed would I be able to make a SEPARATE time machine backup of all my files / documents / media folders in Time Machine on Yosemite, and use this to re-install these on Mountain lion if I downgrade ?
Or is only one time machine backup possible per external backup hard drive ?
Thanks. -
mine is OS X Version 10.9.5. i got so many mails that Yosemite is not proper! what would you suggest me? would you rather i upgraded to Yosemite or not?
That is your choice. We can't tell you what to do.

Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all?? Looks like I can set it for one but not others. All, one, or nothing
Hey Eric,
Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated. -
On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..
Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it. -
Why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?
I am using iTunes 11.0 and can sync a movie (Miracle on 34th Street) to my new ipod nano 7th gen but when I try a TV Show (a Planet Earth HD episode) or even a brief video clip taken with my camara I am told that such an action is not permitted on this ipod. So why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)? Thank you.
Before you can sync video files, it must be converted into a format compatible with ipod. If you can’t sync a video convert it by doing the following:
In iTunes, select the video you want to convert. Do one of the following then sync again after:
1) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPod or iPhone Version.
2) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version.
I hope this works. -
LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.
Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

help, are you having the same problem? iPad 2 calendar, can't get the month of March, can get days in March, but not month view. Any suggestions, thank u.
Hi melbernai - not sure if you've solved this problem yet. I had the exact same problem recently with my 2nd Gen iPod Nano. I solved it yesterday by simply updating iTunes to the most recent version, after which I could get rid of the register screen. The only other thing I needed to do to add my custom playlists was select "Manually manage music" on the screen for my iPod, since it had been in an automatic synching mode since the problem occurred.
