Hi
Try to delete all content (format by clean install), then you can install Mavericks, however I think its better to add mavericks into External fladh drive (USB)
to do clean install"
the language in the screenshot is Swedish which is same in English "Radera= delete), make sure you do back up first for you photos, music, documents,,,,,etc.

If your Mac is new-ish and has one of the Lions as its OS, the drives, cards, USB sticks no longer show up, even though they're there. Go to Finder's Preferences and tick the corresponding items in the General and Sidebar tabs.

HT1933 I bought six songs using my itunes gift card in February but I cannot play the songs or downlaod them to my ipod because I get an error saying the original file could not be found. I have used the gift card previously with no issue. How do I fix

I bought six songs using my itunes gift card in February but I cannot play the songs or downlaod them to my ipod because I get an error saying the original file could not be found. I have used the gift card previously with no issue. How do I fix it?

Have you moved or deleted those tracks on your computer (the gift card has got nothing to do with it) ?
You might be able to re-download them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes (re-downloading isn't possible in all countries) - if those songs appear there then delete the entries from your iTunes library (where you are clicking on them to play them and gettinf the 'original file' error), and they should then get a cloud symbol against them for re-downloading.
If they don't appear in that link then have you got them on, for example, an external drive ?

I have downloaded Mavericks but I cannot install it.

When it gets to the screen which asks you to pick where you want it installed, it shows a picture of my hard drive but when I click it, it says it cannot be installed on there, though there are over 4GB of space on it. I have repaired permissions but it is still happening. What can I do?

OK, I did it and the same thing happened. But I now see the problem, I think. The picture of the (only) disk it shows me when it asks me where I want to install it is labelled Macintosh HD, and shows itself as having 405 gb available. But when I click on it, a little box pops up saying 'This disk is used for Time Machine backups'. Not true. I have an external HD for that. How can I persuade it that this is in fact my internal HD?

HT1222 I'm using iphone 4S but I cannot install the new IOS7. Why?

MBP 17" running OS10.9.2....... how do I reformat it and then instal OS 10.6.8 on it.... have put in SL disc and pressed C when starting but I cannot install the OS

I have MBP 17" running OS 10.9.2....... I need to have OS 10.6.8 so I can contiue running Quicken 2006. I have this on my Mac Pro but am switching to iMac and hence will dedicate laptop to finances. I pressed option when starting and got disk utilities and erased the HD..... I put in the Snow Leopard disc and pressed C when starting but then when I try and install it shows icon of my HD and says I cannot start up from that disk....... I get the same thing when I insert the #1 instal disc that came with the computer. How do I instal OS 10.6.8 (if I go recovery mode it will insatll 10.9.2 which I don't want on this laptop.
Thanks for any help.

The grey disk says OS 10.6...... i tried it as well as the SL disk with the C pressed....... what happens is that it directs you to agree etc and then asks where you want it installed..... the icon of the computer HD however has the yellow exclammation sign saying I cannot start from that disk.
My super drive is working.......
Since I need to get to Quicken for taxes etc what I have done presently is formatted a LaCie rugged drive, partitioned it and when I attach that drive to the MBP and start up again I was able to install on the external drive....I am presently downloading the combo upgrade that will take me to 10.6.8
I still don't understand why it wont instal on the MBP I i know you cannot go earlier than what the machine shipped with but since this is 10.6 it should.I have a Mac Pro with one internal drive running 10.9.2 and the other 10.6.8 and I'd select the earlier system to start when I wanted to do my finances. I have upgraded to an iMac and hence cannot use that for acessing the earlier system
Interestingly, I partitioned another LaCie drive and was able when running 10.6.8 on Mac Pro to install on the external drive...... however when selecting that ext. HD for starting it never did restart with it , always restartd using the 10.9.2 system that was actiually on the other disc.

I can download but I cannot install the latest version.

Firefox says I need latest version for protection. Files for setup (and another file) download (apparently) but I can't install them. I keep going back to download. Also Adobe flash seems to have disappeared and I cannot install that either. I have tried disabling my firewall.

I tried to update lightrooom 5 to version 5.5. but I cannot install the update as I always get the error that adobe_lightroom_x64.msi cannot be found. I have downloaded the installation file with other browsers buit it didn't help. I can't even deinstall

I'd appreciate any help.

Denge75 it sounds like there is an improper entry within your registry for Photoshop Lightroom. I would recommend uninstalling Lightroom 5.3. Once removed then please also use the Microsoft Fixit utility at Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to remove any renaming entries for Photoshop Lightroom.
You should then be able to download and install Lightroom 5.5 directly from Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows.
