Free OS upgrade?

If I buy a new iMac now, will I get the new OS coming out this summer for free?

Only if Lion is released within 30 days of your purchase.  Then you may be eligible for a drop-in upgrade disc (not a full installer.)

  • How do we get our Free Lion upgrade for recently purchased Macs

    So I was told when I bought my new i7 macbook pro last month, I would get a free Lion upgrade.  So my question, anybody know how to make that happen?

    it is called the up to date program: Apple - OS X Lion and Lion Server - Up to Date Program

  • Im a Logic Pro 7.2.1 user - is it free to upgrade to 7.2.3?

    Im a Logic Pro 7.2.1 user - is it free to upgrade to 7.2.3 on the apple website?
    Whats the latest version of Logic?
    Is there any point in me upgrading to 7.2.3 as im a Power Mac G4 user?
    The 7.2.3 version is optimised for Mac Pro and G5 users - will i benefit from this upgrade or will it throw a "spanner in the works"
    Thanks and Happy new year!

    Yes, it's free if you're on 7.2.1
    As to it benefiting... I suppose you could read up on "What's New" on the download page.
    It's my opinion, and let me reiterate, it's my opinion, that there are improvements in each update that are not publicly mentioned. Refinement to the underlying code, if you will.
    I have no proof in that, other than I help moderate another Logic forum, and several of the G4 users there have noticed minor improvements to the way Logic behaves after updating to 7.2.3, even though this latest update wasn't specifically supposed to benefit them.
    Maybe to play it safe, wait and hear from other G4 users...

  • Moduslink free Vista upgrade - order confirmed - one has hope

    I now have hope that my free Vista upgrade might be delivered. Having gone through the Moduslink procedure and received the 'unrecoverablt error' message as well as the subsequent 'we cannot validate your COA number', I, like many others, was at a loss as to what to do next (in the absence of any real help from Moduslink).
    However, out of curiosity I went back to the very start of the Moduslink procedure and clicked on the link 'check existing order'.
    https://upgradeweb.moduslink.com/Vista/ConsumerWebsite/(S(5ggosk45lxz42waxhpen4wfh))/GlobalLandingPage.aspx?oem=&Lang=
    I then keyed in my COA number and e-mail address, and to my surprise it said my order was confirmed; it also gave me an 'order number'. It did not give a shipping date though.
    I've subsequently e-mailed my order number with a copy of my proof of purchase to Moduslink (which they need apparently). I'm now awaiting a confirmation from them that the order will be shipped.
    They have also responded to a couple of e-mails I've sent which is encouraging. They generally respond two days after I've sent my e-mail. Consequently, I'm hoping tomorrow they'll respond to my proof of purchase e-mail.
    I hope this helps others. I should add that Moduslink advise it may take 6-8 weeks before the Vista upgrade is shipped but at least I have a little hope now. That said, I have not received it yet, so who knows??
    Mr C

    I hope your posting will help other who tries to update the own XP to the Vista via Moduslink. Thanks for the info

  • HT5525 is it free to upgrade to iPhoto 11, if it automatically appears on my updates, and if I'm using Mac OSX version 10.7.5, pre installed iphoto when i got my Mac

    is it free to upgrade to iPhoto 11, if it automatically appears on my updates, and if I'm using Mac OSX version 10.7.5, pre installed iphoto when i got my Mac.

    Yes. Don't worry, Apple won't let you download something that requires a purchase before actually paying.

  • Bought CS5.5 and was promised free CS6 upgrade. WITH NO LUCK

    Bought CS5.5 and was promised free CS6 upgrade. Tried once before (actually talking to someone on phone) with no success. My work is crazy May through December so just tried to get upgrade again and was denied.
    THIS IS MY RESPONSE TO THEM:
    Been using your products for over 10 years. Love the products and will continue to use them. But this is absurd and makes me extremely pissed. I purchased the package thinking I was going to get a free upgrade and was never informed of upgrade deadline at time of purchase. Furthermore I called Adobe once before (right around the release of cs6) and was told the update would take sometime. I don't know what Adobe thinks they will gain by pissing off a loyal customer. I have always thought it was best to obtain products legally by paying for them. Whatever. For now on when talking about how great Adobe products are there will always be a footnote of frustration attached to it.

    Please contact me with a private message with your contact information and I'll try to work the system for you.

  • Will The Os X Yosemite be free to upgrade

    I have been wondering if at all the still to be introduced Os X Yosemite in the fall of 2014, would be free to upgrade or download?

    And how in the world would you know that?  If you are in the public beta program you have violated your non-disclosure agreement.

  • HT5148 Will the upgrade to Final Cut Pro X, promised on release of Mac Pro, be free to upgrade?

    If I buy Final Cut Pro X now, will the new version, promised when the Mac Pro is released, be free to upgrade? 
    Having bought Logic Pro 9 last year and now having to upgrade to Logic Pro X at full cost, I don't want to make the mistake of paying for Final Cut Pro X now and then having to pay full for it again when new version is released.

  • Is there a free Iphoto Upgrade?

    Have IPhoto 9 on an IMac with OSX 10.6.8 but when I try and update I get the option to purchase ILife 11 for $14.95.  Is there not a free IPhoto upgrade?

    No it wasn't.
    Updates are free -  these are usually bug fixes
    Upgrades cost money - these add new features.
    There hasn't been a free version of iPhoto since about 2004. It comes free with a new Mac, but other than that Updating requires a purchase.

  • Free Speed Upgrade - NOT FREE!

    I signed up for the My Rewards to get the free speed upgrade advertised, and in my bill, there is a promo in there:
    Specials and Promotions
    7/25 8/24FiOS Quantum 1 Mo. Credit
    -10.00
    Does this mean we will be seeing a $10 price hike next month? If so, this is blatant FALSE ADVERTISEMENT!

    It sounds like you signed up for FiOS Quantum in addition to the free speed update.
    Quantum is a TV product/service and has nothing to do with Internet speed.  I signed up for Rewards+ to get the free speed upgrade and I do not have that $10 credit, nor any mention of Quantum, on my current bill.

  • Is this News about Free Processor Upgrades true? zz

    Read this
    "Free Processor Upgrades & Savings on T & R Series Notebooks, A Series Desktops & X Tablets" here:
    http://www.fatwallet.com/cash-back-coupons/Lenovo
    I bought my T61 in the last December.
    I followed the link found in the webpage above, but don't know how to do the CPU upgrade?
    Any tips?

    Most likely means that if you buy laptop x with cpu y for $1000 they will give you an upgraded cpu for the same price.
    Good luck
