Have older imac how do i get itunes new version not compat

Have an older imac with OS X cannot upgrade operating system. Have a new iphone and ipad would like to download itunes to sync devices. Any suggetions

There is only two suggestions possible; 1) upgrade your iMac to Mac OS X 10.5.8. System requirements can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3759
If your iMac falls short of those requiremently only by a bit - your iMac has an 800MHz processor, for instance - it may be possible to "force" Mac OS X 10.5 onto your system. See this site, for starters:
http://lowendmac.com/osx/leopard/unsupported.html
Otherwise, you will not be able to run iTunes 10.5 which means that you will not be able to sync your iPhone nor iPad to that iMac and you'll (suggestion 2) need to use another computer.
Regards.

  • When I try to move the new firefox icon into my OSX applications folder I get a message telling me I don't have permission. How can I get the new version of Firefox into my applications folder?

    I downloaded the new version of firefox for Mac OSX.
    I dragged the firefox icon over my applications folder.
    A message window asked if I wanted to replace an older version of the application. I clicked "yes".
    Another message window popped up and said I did not have permission.
    What now?

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • Imovie-how do i get the new version on my new mac???

    Sounds strange I know but when I transfered the contents of my old imac to my new imac via the cable it has also transfered across the old version of imovie. If I set up a new user I can open the new version of imovie but my profile doesn't recognise the new version of imovie. Does anyone know how I can get the new version of imovie onto my current profile which was imported from my old imac?

    Hi John,
    The Outlook Plugin for Adobe Send supports Outlook 2010 and 2013.  There are no plans to make it compatible with Outlook 2007, since it's a much older version.
    Best,

    Safari 1.3.2 is the newest version for Mac OS X 10.3.9. You need to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.4 to get a newer version; a G3's maximum OS is 10.4.11.

  • My iPhone 4s hasn't given me the option to Download and Install iOS 8.1.2. I still have iOS 7.1.2. How can I get the new version

    My iPhone 4s hasn't given me the option to Download and Install iOS 8.1.2. I still have iOS 7.1.2. How can I get the new version

    Try updating it on your computer. If you get a message that your iPhone is up to date then you actually have an iPhone 4, not a 4s.

  • IPHOTO says photos saved with newer version of IPHOTO. How can i get the new version of IPHOTO back on my system?

    I loaded IDVD on my IMAC. Now IPHOTO will not open pictures due to pictures saved with a newer version of IPHOTO. How can i restore the newer version of IPHOTO back on my system?

    Sounds like a possible damage library.  Give this a try: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I have older iMac.  No longer getting security updates.  Can't upgrade to Maverick.  Do I need anti-virus software?

    Hi.  I am not very computer literate so bear with me.  I have an old iMac:
    iMac 8, 1
    10.6.8, think I installed Snow Leopard
    2.4 gz, Intel Cored 2 Duo
    1GB, 800 mhz ddr 2 sdram
    I no longer get security updates from Apple.  Can't update to Maverick because I don't have enough memory.  Bought my Mac in part because of no need for antivirus software but have been told I need it now.  Is this true?  Do I just pick something to download or install?  Is there something appropriate at the Apple Store?

    If you have an iMac model 8.1, you can upgrade as far as Mavericks if you upgrade your RAM. I have the same model, with RAM upgraded to 6 GB and Mavericks does fine.
    One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install Mavericks, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything.
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

    The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.

    I kept a Snow Leopard partition for older games and so forth, but mainly use Mavericks.

  • The older version would allow to save tabs when closing, how can i get the new version to do the same?

    the previous version would ask something like 'save file' when i would close firefox. as i use various tabs this is a very helpful feature for me. i would like to get this same feature on the new version, otherwise i want to know how to go back to the older version.
    thanks

    Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
    # Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
