  • TS2986 I installed Snow Leopard, upgraded it to OS X 10.6.8, paid for and spent the hours necessary to download Lion, but Lion will not install.  Even though it says the requirements are 10.6.6 or greater, when I try to install, it says I need 10.7.

    I installed Snow Leopard, upgraded it to OS X 10.6.8, paid for and spent the hours necessary to download Lion, but Lion will not install.  Even though it says the requirements are 10.6.6 or greater, when I try to install, I get a message saying I need 10.7. to install Lion.  What should I do?

    Hi..
    Make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements.
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OSX v10.6.6 or later (V10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available spare
    From here > Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications
    If your Mac meets the requirements, installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo reinstalls the App Store for you which may help.
    Restart your Mac after instaling the combo installed. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8.
    If you have anti virus software installed, you may need to disable that in order to install Lion.

    Hello buddyacw
    You would have to restore the iPhone. Download the latest version of iTunes and then follow the steps in the article below to get it working again.

  • My computer will not let me download because it says there is no digital signature I need this for a college course how can i download it?

    I am taking a web design class and my instructor wishes us all to use the same browser. She has provided a link in her syllabus and it does go to the download site for Firefox. However, as I am running the download my computer pops up with "there is no digital signature" and "this file is corrupt" and will not download it. What to do?

    Make sure that you do not run the file directly, but save the file to the Desktop and start the installation via a double-click.<br />
    You may need to unlock the file via the right-click context menu: Properties > Security

    Restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

  • My ipod syncs and is fully charged  but will not run tried the reset still comes up with the language screen Any ideas how to fix?

    How to fix my nano so I can use

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • TS4071 itunes will not install on my computer,  error says msvcr80.dll is missing.  i cannot get to the app store

    trying to get to itunes via my pc as i have before in order to download an app...
    i recently bought my wive a newly refurbished HP minidesktop and took her old computer...
    I installed my 2 1TB drives and was off and running. 
    I renamed her computer. and retained my own owner name and was the adminstrator....
    Yet apple does not identify this as the computer which my iphone4 was originally identified with  (this may or may not be part of the problem)...
    However, after downloading and running the itunes setup,
    it runs for about two minutes
    then tells me the external apple device is foreign to it
    (i had my iphone4 plugged into a usb port,
    and tells me to correct the situation. the retry loops back to that point again,
    ignore does the same thing as cancel...leaves an itunes icon on the desktop.
    double clicking on this tells me msvcr80.dll is missing.
    Help.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I'm using the latest version but it won't let me install Adblock Plus because it thinks I'm using Firefox 2.0. Youtube also thinks I'm using an old version.

    I've tried updating Firefox several times, and I just completely uninstalled it, then installed it again.

    You have a corrupted user agent:

  • My ical will not let me add events it saying my calender was created by mail.  How can I change this.  We use mobile me and synch

    Does anyone know how I can add events to my desktop ical when the message I receive says that the calender was created by Mail
    I do not know how this happened.  I managed to synch and change this some months ago but I do not know how!

    Hi Cara,
    Welcome to Discussions.
    With iCal closed, try deleting it's preference file (User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist).
    If this does not work try repairing permissions. Open Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) and select your boot volume on the left and click Repair Permissions.
    If neither of these work post back.

  • I am trying to install "Awesome Screenshot" but could not be installed because Firefox (ver 4.0) cannot modify the needed file, and this addon is featured on the Firefox home page.

    My OS is windows XP with sp2

    This is Joel from the awesome screenshot dev team. Could you send us the path of your Firefox extension directory? We suspect the issue had to do with the character length of the local directory of an XP machine.
    Thanks.
