Having trouble downloading applications.

I have recently been given someones old Mac and have no CDs or much information about what version this is. In trying to download the new itunes to sync with my iPhone I was instructed that I needed Mac OS 10.5 but I seem to be striking out in finding this download. I have tried 10.5.1 but this does not seem to work either.
Please help!

I don't think you have an option but to find a copy of Leopard on eBay or Amazon.
Having said that, you will eventually have to get to 10.5.8 before you can upgrade further to Snow Leopard (10.6.3 and 10.6.8).
I very much doubt your machine can get as far as Mountain Lion.
I suspect you may have to buy that elusive (or expensive) copy of Leopard  ... or progress to a more up to date machine, preloaded with Snow Leopard.   If you take the latter option you can always consult through these columns as to whether the machine you intend to buy will meet the minimum specs to meet your aims.

Hope you find this helpful.

  • Have a new itouch. I'm having trouble downloading iTunes. I keep getting the error message: Apple Application software was not found. Apple application support is required to run iTunesHelper. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTues again. Error 2.

    I have a new iTouch. I'm having trouble downloading iTunes. I keep getting the error message: "Apple Application Software was not found. Apple application support is required to run iTunesHelper. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2." I have uninstalled and tried installing again and get the same error message. What do i need to do?
    Lg

    Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.

  • Having trouble downloading itunes on my computer. i keep getting a error message that reads: apple sync notifier.exe- entry point not found.

    Hello, can anyone help me out there? Im having trouble downloading itunes on my computer.
    Ikeep getting a error message reading:
    #1  applesyncnotifer.exe- entry point not found.
    #2  the procedure entry point sqlite3-wal-checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library. sqlite3.d11.
    #3  service 'apple mobile device' (apple mobile device)
          failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Restart the programme all should be well
    In case that your OS is (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Now paste it in the folder  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck

    I just bought a new iMac and am having troubles downloading creative cloud installer.  Its coming up with error 214 - I can't find any solutions for this.  Can anyone help me?  Im on mac OS 10.9.4

    Meg81 error 214 indicates a download data validation error.  This means that the update you downloaded became corrupted likely during the download process.  I would recommend utilizing the suggestions listed in Error downloading Creative Cloud applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/error-downloading-cc-apps.html to attempt to improve the stability of your Internet connection.
    You can also find information on how to review your download logs which may provide additional information regarding the failure of the download.

  • Having trouble downloading Adobe Flash CS6 trial

    I'm having trouble downloading the trial for Flash CS6, I download Adobe Dowload Assistant and I click on "Open" when it tells me to, but then it says "Sorry, an error has occured. This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance." I've tried dowloading it several times, restarting my computer, everything.  I have a Mac OS X v10.7.5

    Could you test with the below 2 steps first?
    1> Install latest AIR runtime(http://get.adobe.com/air/)
    2> With latest AIR runtime installed, re-install AIR applications
    Another guide from colleage:
    1> Make sure you uninstall the AIR application(some drops from the prerelease program of Adobe). 
    2> Install the latest AIR application again.
    The reason is that the same application exported with different certificates, and the new one conflicts with the old one.

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

  • I am having trouble downloading attachments from email

    I have an iPad 2 that has been upgraded to IOS 7.0.4. This was a problem before the update - which is the reason for the update but that's another story.
    So for now, iPad 2 IOS 7.0.4 16GB wifi/cell model
    I am having trouble downloading attachments. Not all. but some. a movie in particular and some documents.
    I would thingk it was the email account but I can open it on my iPhone without issue.
    I would've thought the link was bad but I forwarded it one of my other email accounts and it opens fine.
    I have restarted, rebooted, deleated the mail account and reloaded it.
    Still nothing. I have tried to save the video by clicking the "Save Video" icon when you tap and hold the video but it never saves.
    Sometimes it will act like it is going to save because I get a black screen and a rotating flower in the middle of the screen and it says "Loading" but it never does anything. Other times it will just give me a message that says "Can't download attachement".
    Any one have any thoughts?
